How to mate a barrel cam

Mike Foldy Feb 22, 2014 11:20 AM

I am trying to model a barrel cam for a height adjust assembly. I have modeled the cam but can not do a cam mate in the assembly. I am assuming the barrel cam is modeled incorrectly. Can anybody help me model the cam correctly so I cam mate the cam follower to it in the assembly?

Thanks

Mike
