A Brief Discussion on the Parameters and Definitions of Cam Dividers

Return Release Date:2025-04-28

Next, the editor of the precision intermittent cam divider will summarize for you that there are many professional terms and definitions for cam dividers. Please have a brief understanding.




1. Transposition cam


The groove is cut into the surface of the cylindrical solid body and fixed to the cam of the input shaft.


2. Conical support ribs


The tapered rib is located on the circumference of the tapered support rib, in linear contact with the circumference of the cam roller between the cam grooves.


3. Cam roller


The designed cam roller bearing can withstand heavy loads.


4. Output converter tower


The output turret attached to the output shaft. The indexing cam drives the radially embedded rollers to rotate. Its accuracy is a key factor in maintaining the accuracy of the segmenter.


5. Number of stops


The number of stops per rotation of the output shaft.


6. Drive angle (cam indexing angle)


The rotation angle of the input axis requires one indexing motion, and the larger the angle, the smoother the motion.


7. Stop angle


The angle of rotation of the input shaft when the output shaft is fixed. The sum of this angle and the driving angle is 360 degrees.


8. Rotation number


The number of rotations of the input axis.


9. Rotating torque


A larger torque can be applied to the output shaft at a fixed position. If the applied torque is greater than this value, it will damage the splitter.


10. Dynamic torque


The larger torque acting on the output shaft during the indexing period.
