[Numerical Answer] [100 points] A cam is to be designed for an automated part loader as shown in the below figure. The prescribed motion for this application is as follows: 1. Rise 50 mm in 1.5 s using the constant velocity motion scheme. 2. Return in 2.0 s using the cycloidal motion scheme. 3. Dwell for 0.75 s. 4. Repeat the sequence. Analytically determine the cam profile coordinates when a knife-edge follower is incorporated. Because of the size constraints of the machine, a cam with a base circle diameter of 200 mm must be used. The cam is to rotate counterclockwise. At what time (1 =?) do we have Rx = 78.6 mm, Ry - 127 mm ? (In secund) Cam Follower
