Overview: Despite advances in robot technology, in which industrialmanipulators have replaced mechanisms, cam mechanisms still findimportant industrial applications in the textile, food processing andmanufacturing industries. This book is a modern, up-to-date treatiseon the important subject of cam synthesis..Cam mechanisms have been studied from different points of view,namely, kinematic synthesis, dynamic synthesis, analysis, design,optimization and manufacturing. This book is oriented to the kinematicsynthesis of cam mechanisms in a unified framework, i.e. that spatial,spherical and planar
