Abstract
A life estimation of the contact surfaces is an important part of the cam mechanisms design. The aim of this article is to compare available methods of the life estimation. Every theory has its own experimental constants. Their influence on the resulting life estimation is considerable. The real life of the contact surfaces can be markedly different according to used theory. A solving can be to refine the theories. It is possible to improve the experimental constants by means of the experimental testing.
