Abstract
Fig. 23-25 show the different steps for the computation of an envelope. A generalized program has been written by which describing the shape of the body generating the envelope by TEADI and the motion by describing with MEDES the mechanism which governs it, or by giving the successive positions of any two points of the body, gives a visualization of the resulting envelope and, if desired, computes the coordinated of the envelope curve. This can be drawn on plotter or punched on a paper type for N/C machine in the case the envelope is to be cut as for gears.
