    Mechanism Simulation and Validation

    Select Simulation tab to validate the mechanism's kinematics. Use the trackbar to change the axis coordinates or enter values in the input box manually.

    Mechanism Simulation and Validation

    SimulationStanok

    If something looks wrong in the simulation, please check the "Building a kinematic scheme" page of your section: Milling Machines, Robots or Turn-Milling Machines.

    If you see nodes collisions, please check the Grouping elements into nodes.

    Use images/download/thumbnails/129940423/image2021-5-5_17-21-2.png button on the Toolbar to validate whole assembly.
