Cams: 4 sets of 4 profile shapes. (TS0060)

These  cams cover a range of profile shapes suited to classroom activities.

The shaft hole has a 4 mm diameter and will fit snugly onto a 4 mm wooden dowel.

Cams may be drilled to fit other shaft sizes or alternatively by inserting a plastic bush, a smaller 3.00 mmshaft diameter may be fitted.

Each internal hole size of these cams fits our micro-plastic bush TS0207 and this enable the cams to be directly fitted to any 2 mm diameter motor shaft.

Cams are interestingly used in creating toys, puppets and robots where moving parts and eccentric movements are desired.

 Note that a hole through the cam that is not on its true centre will enable eccentric movement to take place.

When rotated the cam's outer diameter will move in such a manner that a cam follower can be made to rise up and down in a novel manner.

A set of Cams include four profiles x 4 such sets
