Simulating a motion that avoids interference with other parts in an assembly

Simulating a motion that avoids interference with other parts in an assembly

Simulating a motion that avoids interference with other parts in an assembly

(OP)
Hello all, I have a sub-assembly in which i have given all possible constraints for the parts. I manipulate the parts using Manipulator option "with respect to constraints". The system however does not recognize that some features in the parts are interfering during the motion. I need to simulate the motion also avoiding the interference. I cannot give a contact or coincidence constraint as the interfering parts are not in contact during the entire trajectory of motion. How do I get the system to acknowledge and avoid this interference during the motion?
