Changing the Linear Motor Speed

Next, you duplicate the study and change the linear motor speed.

  1. Right-click the Motion Study 1 tab of the motion study and click Duplicate.

  2. Select Motion Study 2, the duplicate study.

  3. Right-click LinearMotor8 in the MotionManager and click Edit Feature .

  4. Change the motor velocity to 35 mm/s and click .

  5. Click Calculate (MotionManager toolbar).

    Notice that changing the speed with which the plate moves into place does not affect the overall simulated motion. The welding task does not begin until the plate is properly placed.

  6. Hover over the MotionManager timeline slider.

    The simulation takes 3.6776 seconds, due to the slower motor speed of Task1.
