How to add a motor to an assembly
Question
I have an assembly that I would like to drive through a range of motion with a Motor. How do I add a motor to the assembly?
Answer
The Motor command can be found in the Assembly Command toolbar. Once the command is selected you need to define whether it is a rotational or linear motor (this is done in the ribbon bar) then identify an under constrained part that the motor will act on followed by the axis of rotation or linear axis. Finally define the speed and distance the motor will travel. To animate the motor choose the Simulate Motor command from the same fly out menu.
