wissam Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Hi i have a plate and a shaft. i am able to constraint the shaft to be tangent to the plate and constraint it to be on a specified location. However. i need to make the plate rotate when the shaft rotates as if it is one unit. the shaft is to be welded to the plate. i tried everything within the joint or constraint. i also tried to weld the plate and shaft as single assembly but i couldn't weld with the shaft tangent with 0 offset. all i need is to fix the shaft on the plate and make the plate rotate with the shaft.

MarkFlayler Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 In the Shaft file, create a plane that is Tangent to the shaft and parallel to the origin plane in the middle of the shaft. From there use a Mate or Flush constraint in the Assembly with that new work plane to a face of the plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
