I have two shafts parallel to each other, connected the with an revolution mate to an base-plate that is fixed in space.
i would like to show how these two shafts rotate. I have an gear relation between the two revolution mates.
I hope this all makes sense..

With kind regards Bart (NLD)

    Are there any keyways or anything on the shafts that make it easier to see if they are rotating? If you post your public doc URL I can take a look.

    @bart_laarkamp,If your both shaft rotate independently then I feel this is problem due to your relation ratio in gear relation. Please put those two shaft diameter ratio as a relation ratio. I feel it surely work after applying correct relation ratio. If it not working please post your public doc URL I can take a look.
