Analyzing and addressing cam-follower skidding in rotary applications

April 12, 2025 By Lisa Eitel Leave a Comment

Here, we detail what causes skidding in rotary systems. Then we analyze single and double-roller cam follower designs. By Georg Bartosh • President | Intech Power-Core For production machinery with moving subsystems, wear can be a major headache. That’s especially true for those featuring traditional metal cam followers, bearings, and other mechanical elements. As we’ll […]

What are gears for power transmission? Technical summary for design engineers

October 7, 2011 By Lisa Eitel Leave a Comment

Updated February 2020  || The function of a gear is to mesh with other gears to transmit altered torque and rotation. In fact, gearing can change the speed, torque and direction of motion from a drive source. Geometry & general gear design When two gears with an unequal number of teeth engage, the mechanical advantage […]
