			=====Description=====

	'''Linear cams''' move backwards and forwards in a '''[[Types of Motion\|reciprocating motion]]''' and the shape of the surface of the cam determines how far, and in what manner, the ‘follower’ moves in response.		'''Linear cams''' move backwards and forwards in a '''[[Types of Motion\|reciprocating motion]]''' and the shape of the surface of the cam determines how far, and in what manner, the ‘follower’ moves in response.


			=====Features and Applications=====

	Most cams are design using a '''[[Displacement Diagram]]''' - essentially a graph which plots the cam movement against the follower movement. A linear cam can be imagined to be the shape of the graph cut from solid plate and then passed backwards and forwards beneath the follower.
