Modified Trapezoidal
The “Advanced” option enable the possibility to define the width of elementary stages. The
default values define a symmetric trapezoidal curve but it is possible to obtain various
configurations changing the parameters “Delta” defining the seven percentage width of the
elementary stages; instead of “Percentage width” the operator can use directly the elementary
stage amplitude in deg. In the first case the sum of the elementary Percentage width must be
1.00 , in the second case the sum of the elementary width must be equal to the total Cam
Rotation Angle.
The default values ??proposed can be customized by the user
with the Customize command in the Options menu.
Some samples obtained using different values for the parameter “Delta” :
Using the Acceleration Fillet in the Delta4 section
both when entering from the Delta3 section and when exiting towards the Delta5 section:
By setting the Fillet value to 0, or if the value is higher than the maximum allowed, the program
automatically inserts the maximum possible value.
Maximum Fillet at the exit from the Delta4 section.
