such as FIRST which is supported by PTC. The result of this effort is
posted on the Mobius Innovation & Development, Inc site (mobiusid.com


. It is based on standard pitch sizes (mm & inch) for roller chains.

UDF (building the chain). Then dynamically edit the curve and watch the
analytical and geometric data update as you drag the size.
