If you constrain the flat face of the cyan roller to be tangent to the inner, flat track of the cam, but leave the gray arm the roller is attached to free to move in and out, what happens? In assembly, if you rotate the cam (it looks like the vertical shaft is centered on an axis through the origin) I'm wondering if the roller/arm assembly will follow.
If so, you could at least turn the cam discreetly to some degree(s) on interest and then measure changes using the measurement tool, right?
Cheers,
