What I am trying to do:
My mechanism relies on a part to hit the edges of its container in order to move backwards and forwards in its arc shape. When in the assembly view, I can successfully and accurately demonstrate the animation.

 

I face issues when trying to replicate this in the motion study as a animation or as a basic motion analysis. I use contact points but this causes the animation solver to fail.

Could someone please help.

The zip file of all assembly components is below.


Thanks,
Max
