DMU Kinematics

[naveen]

Hi,
I am trying to add kinematics to my catia design, but just dont know how to. I have two sprokets and a chain. I need the chain to run according to the sprokets. I need the chain and the sprokets synchronized so they run run togther.
I have two cylindrical joint on the sprokets, one sproket connected to the axcel and the other connected to the output shaft of a small motor, and both the sprokects are connected using a chain.
Can anybody please help..

Thanx in advance

Set up a GEAR joint between the two sprockets, based the ratio of teeth.

Don't waste your time with the links in the chain.
