Barrel Cam

[Anonymous]

I am looking for a good way to do barrel cams in Inventor.

The only way I have figured out so far is with the new emboss tool. However,
with this method the sides of the groove are not parraell.

See example in CF of what I am looking for.

There are already several examples in CF, you might want to check them out.

I found the oil groove samples, but nothing barrel cams.

Are there some on barrel cams?

In addition to Roald's suggestion, there was another discussion started by Walter Holzwarth on 11/29/02 in this NG.
There are postings in customer-files (same date) that go with the topic.

John:

There were some examples of this in the IV-5.3 discussion group about a
year ago. If you go there and do a find on barrel cams it should show you
the files and examples, also there were files on CF at the same time. Sorry
I don't remember exactly when.

Hope this is helpful
