   Afaik there used to be several components for Delphi that emulated TP graph.   
   FPC also   
   still has one (640x480 tho).

   OTOH, if the calculation has some performance requirements, it wouldn't hurt   
   either.   
      
   I think the original question is simply to general. What the original source   
   does isn't specified (maybe it is connected via some I/O port to a brabender or   
   some other rheology device something), and neither is the destination   
   (should it be just a basic port, are they expecting windows look and feel,   
   do you want to expand it etc)
