How to design a barrel cam to improve torque?

[QUOTE="Baluncore, post: 6866580, member: 447632"] To reduce wear and make assembly possible, I would expect to machine two identical tracks in the barrel, separated by 180°, so the follower could be a pin pushed through a hole in the green push-rod, the rod that then rotates. That would remove side forces between the follower and the barrel, during operation. We have some idea from post #3, assuming that the scale is in millimetres. There may be space for a miniature bearing on each end of the pin. [/QUOTE]
