I'm working on a simulation of a Bristol radial engine and I'd like to get the valves to work, but I can't seem to apply a cam stress.
You can. Say a little +
Where does it get stuck?
Have you created a surface on your cam so that there is only one face on this said cam and not sections of the face
The same goes for the finger that it will come into contact with this said cam
waiting for completion and test of your by

See this link

you will find all the connections and constraints

Hello
There is a cam constraint, in the constraints menu, you have to click at the bottom "mechanical constraints"

In fact, when I want to select the finger, it doesn't want to, for the cam path, there's no problem, but since the finger forms a half sphere, I wonder if it's not its that's messing up. Solidworks 2016 is really complete, but I don't yet master all the features of it.
