Multi-Lobed High-Load Driving

Driving multi-point shootbolts into heavy steel frames requires continuous gear contact throughout a $360^\circ$ key turn.

Cloverleaf Cam Kinematics

  • Triple-Lobe Profile: Sintered 40Cr steel cam maintains linear force transfer across top, middle, and bottom shootbolt rods without binding.
