Tutorial conclusion: Enabling motion using joints and contact sets

This tutorial led you through the process of assembling the components of a Geneva drive so you could visualize the motion of the gear mechanism.

In this tutorial, you:

  • Applied a rigid group to all the components in the rotor subassembly.
  • Added a revolute joint to position the rotor subassembly within the frame subassembly.
  • Enabled contact sets, then created a contact set between the wheel of the cross subassembly and the pin of the rotor subassembly.
