In the graphics area, we evaluate the values exactly at the Master Machine Angle. In a Graph FB we evaluate the values at each machine-step. See Machine Settings dialog > Number-of-Steps. The Master Machine Angle can be any angle from 0 to 360. which may not be equal to the angle of step in the machine-angle The values that you can display in the graphics-area and plot with a Graph FB include: •Velocity vectors •Acceleration vectors •Force vectors •Torque vectors •Angle Motion-Dimension of a Rocker •Linear Motion-Dimension of a Slider •2D-Cam Radius of Curvature •2D-Cam Pressure Angle •2D-Cam Contact-Force •2D-Cam Contact-Stress •2D-Cam Sliding-Velocity |
