Design a cycloidal cam-follower displacement table for a cam that provides a dwell at zero lift for the first 120 of the motion cycle and then dwells at 0.8 in lift for cam angles from 180 to 210. The follower will again dwell at zero lift at 270 for the remainder of the cycle. The cam follower displacement table will be laid out using 10 intervals. Assume the cam rotates at constant angular velocity. 4.
