ting a Smooth Curve
Smooth curve interpolation conducts interpolation and magnification on data points of Master, so as to
smoothen the modified curve with higher resolution. The interpolation results will elevate the stability
and smoothness for machine operation. In the sample below, the original data points are 24 points, and
the modified length of Master will be 10,000 points. In this case, the magnification rate of point-to-point
section will be 10,000/23=434. On this basis, PMSoft will automatically calculate the data of the
inserting points according to the number of inserting points and the smoothing coefficient. After this, the
modified 10,000 points electronic cam curve will be drawn according to the calculated results in the
same proportion of the previous electronic cam curve.
