revolute

I am working on a project which requires multiple revolute mates to gimbal a part using a servo, however when adding all of the mates, I get a "Mate overdefines the assembly" error. Here is the link to the assembly:…

Is there a detailed description somewhere of how OnShape handles part movement in multi-joint chained assemblies? Specifically wondering about why it seems like sometimes moving a part at the end of a chain appears to work as expected (ie pretty much how it would in the physical world, presumably using inverse kinematics…

Hi, I'm new to all of this... Im trying to make a box with a rotating hindged lid on top with two parts: the box and the lid I tried to put a revolute mate on it to see how it opened and it worked, but it rotates a full 360 degrees where the top of the lid will phase through the box. I wanted to test if the lid had enough…

Hi I'm trying to mate 2 holes in a support bar to 2 rods but it refuses to mate. I've made revolute mate to the 1st rod and after that I cannot get any other mate to work to match up the 2nd rod. Assembly works fine in SW and Creo. The shaft is not connected in any way. Hole and rod centres are exact. Any assistance…
