Dear all,
In one of the mechanism assembly, the Mechanism
runs smoothly for one time and after sometimes if i re-
run the analysis again the Rigid body(i.e the fixed part
in the mechanism) spins instead of the Rotating member
and also simulataneusly the whole mechanism zoom in and
zoom out until it reaches the 100% of the analysis. I
don't know why this happen.

Can anyone give some clue how to correct this problem.


Thanks

Dear all,
I have re-assembled the mechanism connection. The
rigid body spin has stopped now.The problem is solved. But
i couldn't find the exact reason for the rigid body spin.


Thanks

Hello... anyone have a solution for this... it happens to me occassionally too!!!





:(
 
Hello Mithrandir,
I hope this Rigid body spins happen due to
mismatch in the curve and point of the slot follower
connection. If you have used this slot follower connection,
pl. check. that might be the reason for the Rigid body
spin. If your problems solved let us know.


Thanks
