Cam contact position coordinate vs angle

Hi,

I wanted to track the contact point/edge(co-ordinates) of
cam-flat follower mechanism - Pro/E.

Because, the torque needed at each angle of cam is
dependent on 1.force needed through follower axis
2.instantaneous offset of contact point from cam spinning
axis.

If i need constant/desired force during follower lift,
then i need to optimize the contact offset from cam axis.

I hope the soln. to my question will be helpful in many
engg design calculations.

Thanks & Best Regards,
