Our team combined a Peaucellier-Lipkin linkage, which transforms rotational motion into a straight line, and a CAM, which rotates our linkage to create an angle change to create the desired motion. We ran into a couple of issues with the wood wearing down, which caused undesired movement and the linkage plate uncoupling from the cam at times. Improvements can be made to scale this mechanism for an actual cocktail shaker and increase the precision and smoothness of the motion profile.
