Trace the center of gravity of an assembly using dynamic simulation

Anonymous

I am trying to trace the position of the COG for a mechanism using the dynamic simulation.

 

I know someone made a post about this before but I had a hard time following the thread.

I also know that I could record the coordinate locations of the center of gravity and plot the points but that will take far too long and I am kind of tired of doing that way.

 

I am not familiar with ilogic and if that is the only way to do I will probably need help to implement the code

I am familiar with VBA though.

 

Here is what I am trying to do:

I am driving the angle of the lower left corner and I would like to trace the center of gravity for a full rotation

Thanks for your time.

This file has been edited with counter balances but you can just remove them as the COG wont change with them there
