thread561-309251: NX Motion Simulation: Joint Limits

Hello, I am using nx9 motion simulation. My model is a cylinder moving through a hole perpendicular to a pipe. There seems to be no consistency as to when the 3D contact will work against the pipe wall on the opposite side of the opening. I am using a slider constraint with a constant velocity translation. Has anybody else had similar issues. Siemens has been no help in either offering classes or providing instructions on these issues.

Thank you

RE: NX 9 Motion Simulation 3D Contact

A 3D Contact do not apply, if one Link (here: the cylinder) of this pair has a driven joint. This is also mentioned in the Online-Help.
One Workaround would be to use two markers and a sensor with an if-function, that says: if the marker, which is related to the driven cylinder, reaches the Position of another marker (which defines the end position), than the movement stops.
