Solved: Cam follower joint

Ait-Tek · ‎06-21-2021

I am trying to get the green roller to follow the wedge when the wedge moves back. I have tried contact sets, but no joy even with the pivot point reset set to zero. any help would be appreciated.

The last Revolve joint, main hinge, tends to show an error but the system still works OK, at least by manual dragging it. You cannot Animate the Model probably because of the Contact Set but I am not sure. You have a lot of Yellow errors in your timeline so that many have something to do with the one Revolve joint error. Model is attached.

Thanks for that, really made my day. I did have a slider on that but seem to conflict and nothing moved. I will have a look at your joint structure. oh and all the yellow was stuff I removed from the rest of the machine so as not to cloud the issue and reduce the file size a lot.

Thanks again. I am fairly new to F360 but absolutely love it and learn something new every day.
