Roll Up components on path

[holden_marshall]

Hello,

I am trying to show several components rolling up around a tube and unrolling without intervening with each other. Are there any suggestions for accomplishing this?  A similar concept is having an air hose wrap around the reel and then getting pulled off the reel. If someone could help with this I would greatly appreciate it.

Attach your assembly here.

Have you used Animate Parameter in previous designs?

I have not used animate parameters in previous designs. Could you point me to a link that demonstrates this? Unfortunately, due to company policies I cannot send the assembly.

@JDMather here is a rough assembly of what  I am trying to do if I can get help rolling this up and unrolling it I can complete the rest of my design.

Something like this?

This is an Inventor Studio animation of a single part file with three solid bodies, unroll position controlled by one parameter.  This could presumably be done in an assembly, but I haven't tried it.

An assembly without parts is useless.
