what kind of error you are getting?


you should gve the Slant surfaces as a cam contact surfaces and allow the disegagements.


have you checked the Director vectors for each wedge?

have you setup the other connections other than the cam one?



u need some type of connections and drivers to move the top body closer to the bottem body.



also a slider connection to allow the horizontal motion of ur clamp style parts.



if u have trouble upload the parts. and i'll fix it for u

mechanical01,

In addition to the notes by PupPet and Siva, do the following:

Make one of the cam surfaces slightly curved, to make a line cam
contact and not a full surface to surface. Also, if you can, make the
two cam parts extruded in the same direction. MDX/MDO can fail
sometimes when these two conditions are not met.

My 2 cents.
