Help with MDX !!

[xcad]

Hello Pro/E users



I have a question that refers to MDX (Mechanism Design Extension) of Pro/E.

How is it possible to make two gears work together ;

I try to use the Model, Cam Follower connection and select the surfaces of the two gears but nothing works properly.

As a second try, I design the gears without the tooth, and using again the Model, Cam Follower connection it works with the drag option but when I put a servo motor to the mechanism nothing works properly again.

What am I doing wrong ; Is there a special way to make two gears work together ;

Thanx for ur time



If anyone have a good site that has valuable information about MDX, that would be very useful

There is a video on how to simulate gears in Mechanism Design both on this website & on KinetiVision's website (same video). It's a freebie, courtesy of KinetiVision.
