When it comes to converting rotary motion to linear motion in mechanical designs, cam followers are typically the go-to option. However, many robots, electronic devices, manufacturing, and automated equipment that could benefit from cam followers often encounter limited mounting space, especially on the stud side of the assembly area. While you might find a cam follower that fits into your tight space, it's less likely to be compatible with your preferred mounting method. Improperly mounting a cam follower can result in damaging misalignment and equipment downtime.
