Limit Moving Parts

[matt_johnson35]

I am trying to limit the movement of the subassembly called Intermediate Shelf in the main assembly. If you open the Rack Frame Assembly you will see the top shelf rotates 360 degrees, I want to limit that to 45 degrees from its current position. Any help would be appreciated 🙂

Hi matt.johnson35,

I didn't look at your assembly, but I think what you're wanting is calle Constraint Limits. There's a short how to video at this link:

I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,

Sounds like you just need to expand the constraint dialog. See attached.
