1. Introduction: Beyond the Standard Cam In the world of mechanical motion control, the humble cam and follower is a 2000-year-old technology. However, standard plate cams (radial or axial) suffer from a fundamental flaw: clearance . To operate without jamming, a traditional cam maintains a small gap (backlash) between the cam surface and the follower. This gap leads to impact, noise, vibration, and positioning errors—especially problematic at high speeds.
