Gear constraint problem

Hello

 

I have a problem with this constraint, I would like to make a gear constraint so that the gears only rotate when the gears do not touch.whereas when I do the constraint the gears do not rotate when the teeth cross.

I think that in the gear constraint only the original diameter is taken into account so if at the time of setting the gear constraint there were the teeth interfering it stays like that.

It is therefore necessary to position the two parts correctly without interference and only then to set the gear constraint

Hello

 

To install the two gears correctly without interference you have to use "Move the component" in "structural dynamics" mode so as to stop the rotztion as soon as there is contact!

See also "collision detection" mode

 Hi @ m.anger

 

see this tutorial my expert 3 D complex constraint as well as gear constraint

Here is a solution that gt22 had given in another question but that he must have forgotten ...   ;-)

Hi @Tomalam

 

It is true that the link you took on another question is specific to gears which proves that when you look you find

The link I gave today corresponds to all the constraints that we don't think to use, among other things, the constraint asked here gears that completes the question in every way

well seen the artist there are some who follow
