Geneva device
The part file is a Geneva Device with functioning parts. The drive indexer can be rotated using the assembly move with physical dynamics turned on and the device will index as intended.
To move the device:
1 open the assembly
2. click move component
3. under options in the move dialog click physical dynamics.
Note make sure the device parts are not colliding before moving or you will cause an error

Bobby, can I use your files for creating a SolidWorks animation tutorial for Geneva Mechanism for my SolidWorks blog (www.gupta9665.wordpress.com)
about 1 year agosure
about 1 year agoThanks, actually I was modelling new one but then came across yours, so I thought why not use these.But it's always good to ask :)

about 1 year agoBobby, Deepak - late to the party but finally got around blogging about the model and the tutorial too http://blog.grabcad.com/2011/05/how-to-animate-a-geneva-drive-in-solidworks/
Nice co-operation :)
about 1 year agoI had to model parts of a Geneva Wheel (Maltese Cross) assembly for the 2011 Ontario Technological Skills Competition in Canada for Mechanical CADD on May 3rd. I will upload what we had to do ASAP.
12 months agoThanks :)
11 months agoVery useful
Good
10 months agoGood one ....
10 months agothanks for the files
10 months agoneeded this to understand how to do a motion with physical dynamics. Thank you very much, now I'm doing motions with many different assemblies.
7 months agothank you very useful i print it to 3d printer
7 months agovery good ...thanks a lot !!!
6 months agoHi Bobby, can you upload the STEP/IGES file? If that is not too great a favour to ask.
6 months agoHow do i create a video animation of this in solidworks?
6 months agoHi Carlos
6 months agoyou could ask that
question in Q&A's
and I am sure some one will
tell you or even better do a little
tutorial for you to follow @
