Cam Motion Coupled with the levers

Hi ppl..

I m New to Pro/E, Started learning it 3 weeks back... i m using WF2.....

I m having a problem coupling the motion of the cam with the 2 levers... Infact There is some error in it, like when i click mechanism it is showing "The highlighted connections are not defined from 2 bodies. If you continue, they will be suppressed"..
I m not able to proceed further, Kinda confused..

What should i do?

Your connenction definition is incorrect. Lever3 should be kinematically constrained to Support. Imagine the support to be a very large component Fixed or Grounded.


Lever3 should be constrained on an axis in the Support. The motor driving the CAM, which inturn will operate the Main_lever and thus the Lever3 will also reciprocate. OH Yes.. you need to create a CAM connection between the Main_lever and Lever3.


I hope I have understood your intent correctly.
