Hello
What settings should I define for lead screw in motion: what type of joint, coupler ?
Thanks a lot !
Hello Scott Thank You
Hello Scott
Thank You
Hi Boris,
Here are three options to consider:
Option 1: Use a Coupler joint. See: How to Crete a Lead Screw in Inspire Motion
Option 2: Use a State Dependent Input (translation of screw is a function of the rotation of the screw rotation). See Inspire Help: State Dependent Inputs
Option 3: If geometry is sufficiently accurate, define a contact between the screw and nut. The interaction is all geometry-based in this case - screw rotates, and as a result of the thread geometry, the nut translates
Hope this was helpful.

Hello Boris,
Which product are you modeling in, Inspire Motion or MotionView? Methods can be different based on available modeling entity types.
Kind regards,
