Hey
friends
I'm trying to move the small cylinder inside the rail using a relationship between them.
But for some reason the little cylinder always escapes out.
Would appreciate help.
Thanks.

Your Cam Slot is not cut correctly. In the video I try to explain how you can tell by comparing it to a sample model I created. I have included my model for your reference. The Tangent Relationship joint is very touchy and will leave the slot if it exceeds it tangent surfaces.
Edit: You also need some guidance on the follow pin. I am using a Pin and Slot but you could use a Slider Joint

Attached in a video on one method to make a cylindrical slot cam that is perpendicular to the cylinder surface at any give point on the circumference.
