4.2 
Structure of a cam 
Introduction 
Create the cam in the S diagram (distance diagram). The curve represents the path-related 
dependency between the master axis (X-axis in the diagram) and the slave axis (Y-axis in 
the diagram). 
Structure of a cam 
The cam consists of individual cam segments. 
Under SIMOTION CamTool, you can use fixed points, straight lines, sine curves, arc sine 
curves and interpolation points as cam segments. 
SIMOTION CamTool calculates interpolation curves between the individual cam segments 
and displays the V diagram (velocity diagram), the A diagram (acceleration diagram) and the 
J diagram (jerk diagram).
