Hello
There is the linear cam simulation in catia

1. Step 1:

   Create Parts As Figure Shown
   

   

2. Step 2:

   When you complete the design you have to create mechanism
   First Mechanism is Point Curve Joint Between Part3 center point and Part1 curve
   

   

3. Step 3:

   Second mechanism is Planar Joint Part 3 & Part 1
   

   

4. Step 4:

   Third Mechanism is Planar Joint Part 4& Part 1
   

   

5. Step 5:

   Forth Mechanism is Prismatic Joint Part 4 & Part 3
   

   

6. Step 6:

   And add A rigid joint with your wheel to Part 3
   

   

7. Step 7:

   Latest you have to chose fixed Part 1 part in mechanism
   

   

8. Step 8:

   If you do all steps correctly CATIA will give you information "The mechanism can be simulated"
   

   

9. Step 9:

   Here we go simulate it
