COSMOSMOTION 2008

COSMOSMOTION 2008

COSMOSMOTION 2008

(OP)
Hi,

Just wondering if anyone has any idea where I can find some usefull (free) tutorials on COSMOSMOTION 2008. I need to use it to simulate dynamics of a device I'm testing.
One more question now that I'm making this thread, again in COSMOSMOTION, in the rotary motors there are 4 or 5 options such as distance, oscillating, expression and so on. anyone knows what distance mean, when the motor is a rotary? what does the angle refere to?

Many thanks

RE: COSMOSMOTION 2008

Just a guess but distance and angle probably refer to an angular rotation.  Just because it is called a motor, doesn't necessarily mean it is a drive motor.

RE: COSMOSMOTION 2008

Cosmos Motion will not do dynamic simulations. It does not have any provisions for rate of acceleration or deceleration, maximum velocity, or maximum force or torque.

After doing much research I have chosen Matlab and Simulink for these tasks. It is more expensive and more difficult to learn than Cosmos Motion but has far more capabilities if you plan on writing control software.
