• Double rollers
• Disk cam
• Pressure angle
• Offset

This paper proposes a novel translating follower that has symmetrical double rollers and also demonstrates how to design such a cam mechanism. Two identical rollers are symmetrically mounted on opposite sides of the follower. The two rollers will take turns to contact the cam when the cam rotates. The application of this follower can greatly reduce the pressure angle on both the rising and the falling motions of the follower. It may also reduce the induced forces.
