Abstract：This article took the folding section cam linkage mechanism of a carton folding machine as an example.Firstly,a preliminary design of the cam was carried out based on actual working conditions.Then,combined with the analytical method designing the cam mechanism based on the allowable pressure angle of the cam,a mathematical model was established with the swing rod angle and the center distance between the cam and the swing rod as design variables.Using the NSGA-Ⅱ optimization algorithm,perform multi-objective optimization design on the cam linkage mechanism and select the optimal solution from the generated Pareto solution set.Based on the optimization results,the preliminary design of the cam linkage combination mechanism was adjusted,and the contour of the cam was obtained through Matlab programming,verifying that the optimized cam pressure angle met the allowable pressure angle.Finally,simulation analysis was conducted on the optimized cam linkage mechanism using Adams software.It is found that the displacement,velocity,and acceleration of the blade movement meet the design requirements,verifying the correctness and feasibility of the optimization results.At the same time,it also provides a reference method for the optimization design of other cam linkage mechanisms.
