To constrain assembly component motion to a path: Select Insert > Mate . Define a path mate for components. Select the Motion Study tab, and select Motion Analysis for Type of Study. Include motion study elements as necessary.You must include a Motor , a Force , or Gravity to force the motion. You can define motion along a path with a path mate motor. Run the study. Defining Motion Along a Path For Motion Analysis studies, you can define a path mate motor to specify displacement, velocity, or acceleration values as a body moves along a path. To define motion along a path: From a Motion Analysis study, click Motor . For Path Mate , under Mates in the FeatureManager design tree, select a path mate. Under Motion, for Function, select the motor profile. To define the motor profile from a function or from data, click Expression, Data Points, or Segments. Select options and click . To reverse the motor direction, for Mates/Direction, click Reverse Direction .
