Hello,
Can someone help me to find the appropriate mate connectors on one of my assemblies please?
If so, let me know how I can share the design with you
Thanks

You can make it public and share the link for people to look at/copy.
Or share via an email addresses for collaboration on your doc my email is "babart77 at gmail dot com"0 -
Many thanks , I shared the design with you for collaboration by email0

Hi @eloge_tounou just had a look at your parts. It may help you to add some mate connectors in the part studio, here you can use a sketch to help you position the mate connector if need be.0

I think you will want a Cam Mate, Onshape has not got this yet. see

@eloge_tounou you get more input from the community if you post some pictures or make the doc public and share the URL.

You need also to copy the URL and paste it hereeloge_tounou said:ok, I make it public, and would see how to add some mate connectors in the part studio.0 -
@eloge_tounou Some tips for assembly mates
1) Fasten mate is used to restrict all the movements of part. Generally used for fastener components.
2) Slider mate is used to allow sliding movement of part along the mate connector direction
3) Cylindrical mate is used to allow both sliding and rotational movement of part
4) Revolute mate is used to allow rotation of part about mate connector axis
5) Planer mate is used to allow the part to move along the plane
6) Ball mate is used for spherical parts to allow rotation at all angles along sphere.
See the below video
7) Pin slot mate is used to allow to slide cylindrical parts such as pin along the slot. see this discussion

@eloge_tounou ,I have given some constrain according to your functional requirement. Provide clearance between Bloc moteur and rotor to avoid intersection. Kindly check out Below URL and video for your assembly. If you need more assistance kindly feel free to ask in this forum.

Thanks Viru
the suggestion is very closed to my expectation, however, the bloc-moteur is a fixed part and a rotation of the part3 (similar to a cam) should result to a movement (combined rotation and translation) of the rotor part, but during this, the external surfaces of the rotor must be guided by the internal of the bloc-moteur
