Round Ramp - Barrel cam

grabcad

A round lofted ramp, or barrel cam, is a unique feature that rotates linearly. Though it has multiple names, the concept remains the same. In Solidworks, the wrap command is utilized for its creation; however, improvements such as helix are expected to simplify the process further. To achieve this design, simply loft two profiles with four guide rails. If you find this technique useful, please show your appreciation with a like!
