The traverse cam system in a spandex yarn splitting machine is an element to wind the splitted yarn plainly on a winding drum, which is equipped mainly with a differential gear and four-bar linkages. As the cam system is working under a high speed, the dynamic balancing and precise kinematic mechanism is important to enhance working efficiency and reduce vibration problems. In this study, a method to evaluate the mechanism precision and dynamic balance is suggested. Applying this method to the developed traverse cam system showed this method can be effectively used to develop estimate the cam system in the design processes before manufacturing.
