Cam Analysis Apparatus- Engineering Lab Training Systems.
Technical Description
The allows the dynamic investigation of
cam mechanisms, as used in motors for actuation of the valves. The cam
mechanism consists of 4 interchangeable cam plates and 2 different
tracers. A mass and a spring are used to simulate the valve. In order to
demonstrate the so-called "valve wobble", the spring rate, mass and
speed are adjustable within broad limits. A plotter allows the actual
lift curves to be recorded. The open design allows the observation of
every detail of the movement process. A stroboscope (not supplied) can
be used to provide a particularly impressive view of the movement
process and lift. The unit is intended for demonstration purposes in
technical education. It is not suitable for use as a test stand for
fatigue testing.
