I am building my first assembly in Catia, and I am attaching several pins to the holes from an arm through the Coincident and Contact Constraints. While I want the pins to be mated with arm surface and I want them to be concentric with their respective holes, I want the pins to still have the ability to rotate relative to their own axis. I dont know how to do that.
The only way I noticed this works is if the first piece (in this case the arm) has a Fixed constraint, in which case the concentric pins have the ability to rotate relative to their own axis. But from what I know the fixed constraint should be applied only once in the assembly, generally to the first part that is imported (in my case, a part that is different from the arm).
Can somebody help me figure out a way how to rotate the pins relative to their own axis while still keeping their concentricity with the arm holes
