Hi all
The curve created by the cam routine uses a series of points to generate the cam path. The resultant curve cannot be used to mate any type of follower to produce motion.
Any ideas on how to change all the points to a continuous curve? Thanks

Fit spline (try two halves for ease of mating). Or u could use a sketch (centered in the track) and constrain to it.
