CAM-Follower-Mechanism is a common mechanical linkage. we utilize it in many applications, such as printing equipment, textile machinery and also in several machining processes. Although this is not complicated mechanism also not requires difficult calculation, I still deeply think those designers are genius!

It looks just normal when it is alone. Once it is a part of a mechanism, it works surprisingly stable and efficient.
This mechanism turns rotary motion into Linear motion repeatedly.
Actually a simple animation would help us understand how it works! Check the video and this will definitely help us we understand how often we use it in our daily life.
