There are several types of mechanism that allow a gain in speed GV < 1 and therefore a gain in force GF > 1. They can be classified into three categories.
1.1 Cam
They can be used to perform any given function. There are many different types. A cam mechanism can typically be modeled as shown in figure 1.
