Animation showing rotating cams and cam followers producing reciprocating Basic Displacement Diagram 3 motion. Cam Classification Cam mechanism can be classified by the type of cam or by the shape, motion or location of the follower. 1) Plate cam : The most commonly used cam is the plate cam (also disc cam or radial cam) which is cut out of a piece of flat metal or plate. Here, the follower moves in a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the camshaft. 4 different follower arrangements a disk cam with an in-line a disk-cam with an in- disk-cam with an offset rolle
