It is possible to create a cam part (e.g. Large radius + small radius + 2 tangent lines) and a follower part (circular boss) then assemble them with constraints such that when the cam is rotated about the large radius the follower will move in a linear fashion?
I can make the parts and set up the tangent constraints but this will only constrain one of the four individual sections of the cam , not the full cam profile.
The cam I want to simulate does have a more complex profile than the attached file.
Thanks
