We understand that the 30o cam outer member Ex. 8061 has not been altered to 45o. Will you please make two cams to the accompanying sketch for use with this outer member. The 30o cams we tried in the first place were incorrect being of too short a travel between the end of the cam action and the engagement of the teeth.
