This cam is part of the P&G Helio-Chronometer design described at: https://www.printables.com/model/1542266-working-replica-of-an-early-20th-century-pilkingto
The cam was derived mathematically using the spreadsheets in the link provided below. The input parameters can also be modified so that someone can develop their own custom cam designs: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1-8d7HC8gH5ODaASLF8Njl1xOkzFsHQeT?usp=sharing
A 3D cam (STL) can then be generated using the Python script at: cam_csv_to_stl.py
Follow the instructions in the readme file, provided in the link above.
