Step Cam Assembly

I am hoping someone can help me with my Cam and Follower assembly issue.

I have made an assembly for a cam and follower. I have used a slider mate for the follower to go through the origin which worked great. I have also used a revolute mate for my cam which also spins perfectly.

However, my issue is when I try to make them tangential, the animation will not work. I have gone as far as filleting the edges of the cam and having a circular bottom on the follower thinking this may have solved my issue, but it hasn't.

I would love some feedback/advice on this!

My regular circular cams work perfect with this method!

    Can you share a public doc for this?
