Use of Expressions to constrain gears in assembly environment
Use of Expressions to constrain gears in assembly environment
(OP)
I am using nx 7.5 and i wanted to constrain 2 gears in assembly environment. I read one post on using Expression Tool. Am not getting how exactly to use this. Please help me in this regard.Thank You.

Attached is an example of a pair of gears that I've used the 'Animation' function to create a relationship between the two gears using expressions. After extracting the files, open the assembly file and then go to...
Menu -> View -> Visualization -> Create Animation...
...and when the dialog opens push the button labeled 'Preview Animation' and when the next dialog opens you'll see what essentially are VCR like controls. Push the 'Play' button to see the animation sequence of the gears.
