How to model Pin/Bearing load in Planet gear at MotionSolve?

Jsoo

While using Machinery extension to simulate Planetary gear drive at Motion Solve

I've ran into following problem

I'm interested in reaction force acting on bearing of planet gear in planetary gear drive

which would be as drawing below

While Planetary gear extension at Machinery tool is great since there is no body of planet gear when modeling given at tutorial I could not find a way to simulate bearing load at planet gear

Thanks and regards

Hi @Jsoo ,

Another way to create the planetary gearset is to use Inspire Motion. We have an article that goes over this. You will be able to review the bearing loads in this model.
