  • Follower

This is a functional 3D model of a Mechanical Cam and Follower. It is a classic engineering component used to transform rotational motion into linear motion.

  • How it works: As the cam (light blue part) rotates, its eccentric shape pushes the follower (yellow part) up and down.
  • Design: The model features a teardrop-shaped cam and a guided follower assembly with a hexagonal top for easy attachment or observation.
  • Educational: A perfect hands-on tool for classrooms, STEM projects, or for anyone interested in mechanical engineering and automata.
  • Modular: This part can be integrated into larger mechanical toys, or used as a standalone desktop gadget.

Assembly

1) Connect the servo motor to the base.
2) Connect the cam to the servo motor.
3) Screw an M3 bolt into the follower to make it more secure.
4) Insert the follower through the hole in the base, and you are ready to start
