Computer Aided Manufacturing on Indexing Cam

Machining of the indexing cam with the technology of computer aided manufacturing is studied. The mesh theory of the cam mechanism, gives the designs of the cam curve, the camber and cam mechanism with a computer was analysed. With C language, software was exploited for porgramming CAMPRCO the pre_and post_process numerical control data, which completes the automatic NC programming of cam curve and the camber, and simulates the tool path in the machining, thus accomplishes the integration of the computer aided design and the computer aided manufacturing.
