How to create a ballscrew relationship

andrew_chai490andrew_chai490 Member Posts: 4

I want to create a relationship to simulate a ball screw. I want it so when the screw revolves one full revolution, the nut moves 10mm without rotating. I tried using the screw relationship, however it revolves the nut rather than the screw. Is there anyway, I can simulate a ball screw such that when the screw revolves, it moves the nut linearly without rotation?
