I want to drive a mechanism with a cam, and as cams are quite complex things, i thought doing a cam-generator might be a good idea.
So I read about cams and found the 2-circular-arc cam as a first "simple" approach. The work from [Emre Arabaci](https://ms.copernicus.org/articles/10/497/2019/ms-10-497-2019.html) shows an approach of dimensionless variables to specify the design of the cam only by giving the desired travel and three variables.
So i fired up openSCAD to make a two-circular-arc cam generator.
One can give the desired travel (sMax) and play with three parameters to alter the shape of the cam:
Lambda
---------
This alters the relationship of the base radius to the top radius
lambda=r2/r
Psi
--------
This alters the relationship of the travel to the base radius
Mu
-----
This alters the angle of the 2nd arc (well it's a bit more complicated)
