hello, i was thinking about studying the rotation of this 2 axes attached with cardan joint. but i didn't find how to do it with catia v5 ,i am seeking for assistance or help with this project.
thank you

Accepted answer

2 ways to do this.

Method A: If this is part of a more complex mechanism, I would just use a U-Joint to easily connect the two shafts.

Method B: (which I think is what you want) join all the individual parts with Revolute joints. You will probably also have to add some Rigid and Planar joints to get the DOF=1. Don't forget to include the shafts and fix the two braces that hold the shafts.
