Cam Follower
Cam followers and Cam Yokes are components commonly used in mechanical systems to convert rotary motion into linear motion, or vice versa.
Cam Followers are sometimes known as track followers and can use either rollers or needles as a rolling element. Stud style cam followers use a stud mount to its mating part while the yoke style has a hole through the middle.
A Cam Follower is a type of bearing that follows the surface of a cam, which is a rotating component with an irregular shape. As the cam rotates, the cam follower moves back and forth along its surface, converting the rotational motion of the cam into linear motion. Cam followers are often used in applications where high loads or speeds are present, such as in engines or industrial machinery.
The Cam Yoke bearing is essentially a roller bearing that is mounted on the end of the arms of the cam yoke. As the camshaft rotates, the cam yoke follows the surface of the cam, and the roller bearing moves along the surface of the cam yoke, converting the rotary motion of the camshaft into linear motion.
Overall, both cam followers and cam yokes play important roles in mechanical systems that require precise and efficient conversion of rotary motion to linear motion, or vice versa." They allow for a highly efficient and reliable system for converting rotary motion into linear motion, and is commonly used in applications where high loads or speeds are present. They are commonly used in engines, industrial machinery, and other mechanical systems that require precise and efficient conversion of rotary motion to linear motion.
