How to move a part about a pin?

How to move a part about a pin?

(OP)
Dear All,

I am working on a faily simple pin and flange (Hinge) problem. My model is basically made of 2 parts, Part1 - includes the pin and Part2 - includes the socket. (as shown in the image attached below). However, i am looking to have a rotational motion in part 2 about the pin.(as explained in image below).

My question is :

How can i produce this movement. (is there a motor in abaqus?), I will be greatful if anyone can help me out step by step.

Please help, Thank you in advance.

Ty very much Sir,

But i would like to inform you that i have made certain changes in the design; I have fixed the pin to the upper flange and the hole in the foot flange, so now i am dealing with only 2 parts. However, i will try what you have asked me to and let you know if i face any problem.

I appreciate your concern.
