Separate coordinate systems are typically created for separate physical parts of a mechanism. This creates easy positioning of the parts in relation to each other. Parameters can also be created and used in the definition of a coordinate system to position parts in relation to each other (by distance or angle). During solving, these parameters can be changed to examine the effect of part position on various aspects of the model. Coordinate systems can also be used to change part positions to examine manufacturing and assembly tolerances of parts.
