Nx Siemens motion simulation tutorial with piston mechanism rotary to reciprocating analysis
Create a motion simulation from a master part:
Choose File→Open and open the master part.
Choose File→All
Applications→Motion.
If you are using NX rather than Simcenter, choose
File→All Applications→Simulation→Motion.
Choose Home tab→Solution
group→New Simulation .
In the New Simulation dialog box, a
referencing template that uses the appropriate units of measurement is
selected automatically.
To change the name of the Simulation file,
in the New File Name group, in the Name box, type a unique name.
This
name must be different than the master part file name.
Note:
If
you plan to run a co-simulation with MATLAB Simulink, consult your Simulink
documentation for supported characters in file names. For example, if your
Motion Simulation file name contains a hyphen (-), the co-simulation will not
run.
To change the folder for the Simulation file, click
Browse next to the Folder box, select the desired folder, and then click
OK.
Note:
If the Use Subfolder for Motion Simulation Data on
Master Part check box is selected in the Customer Defaults dialog box,
you cannot change the folder for the Simulation file. The Simulation file must
reside in a subfolder with the same name as the master part.
Click
OK in the New Simulation dialog box.
In the Environment dialog box,
in the Analysis Type group, click Kinematics or Dynamics to specify the type
of simulation.
If you want to be able to create links using only
assembly components, select the Component-based Simulation check box.
This
ensures full compatibility with the Assemblies application, which is required
for some Motion features such as creating an assembly sequence, capturing an
assembly arrangement, or exploding the mechanism.
To automatically
convert any assembly constraints (or legacy mating conditions) and
Mechatronics Concept Designer objects into links, joints, and other motion
objects, select the Start Joint Wizard upon New Simulation check box.
Click
OK in the Environment dialog box.
If the Motion Joint Wizard dialog
box appears, review the displayed information.
If you do not want
to convert a particular constraint to a joint, select the constraint and then
click Toggle Active Status.
When you are finished, click OK.
The
simulation node appears in the Motion Navigator.
If you used the
Motion Joint Wizard, the appropriate motion objects appear in the Motion
Navigator as well.
