Hi Everyone,
Iam a Newbie to Design Animation and iam trying to Animate an Engine Mechanism. I read through some help on this Forum and i could rotate the CrankShaft using the Servo Motor tool. I am not able to simulate the to and fro motion of the Connecting rod> I do not have the Slightest clue how to do it either. I understand that there should be a Sliding connection in the Assembly for the Connecting Rod, I even did that in a way i had a sub assembly and when i brought that in into the main assembly i did not constarin the vertical Degree of freedom.but iam not sure if i did it right. Iam not able to attch my Files as there is a space limitation over here.I have just attched my Movie file .2004-12-06_073734_Engine.zipAlso iam very much Confused between Design Mechanism Module and Animation Module. MY main Purpose is to Animate a Mechanism and to me both does the Job i guess. I may be wrong. People Help me out here.
Thanks
Siva
