Spring Animation

You can use Motion Analysis (available with the SolidWorks Motion add-in from SolidWorks Premium) to accurately simulate and analyze the motion of an assembly while incorporating the effects of Motion Study elements (including forces, springs, dampers, and friction). A Motion Analysis study combines motion study elements with mates in motion calculations. Consequently motion constraints, material properties, mass, and component contact are included in the SolidWorks Motion kinematic solver calculations. A Motion Analysis study also calculates loads that can be used to define load cases for structural analysis.

Motion studies are graphical simulations of motion for assembly models. You can incorporate visual properties such as lighting and camera perspective into a motion study. Motion studies do not change an assembly model or its properties. They simulate and animate the motion you prescribe for a model. You can use SolidWorks mates to restrict the motion of components in an assembly when you model motion.

I was been little confused about differenece between this terms (motion analysis and motion study) so i have looked at it more carefully. When i open motion study tab in the assembly mode, i have just two option, 1.assembly motion and 2. physical simulation. To be honest i am not sure what is the basic difference between those two because they have almost identical tools, as i said i am new to motion analysis but very motivated to learn it!! Deepak thank you for your effort to answer my questions!!

And if you mean motion analysis, then we actually give spring constrains/parameters in the assembly but not an actual spring part in the analysis.

Tomislav, do you mean Motion study that animation of assembly? If yes then it can be done using in context approach in the assembly.

Thanks a lot Deepak!! I was trying to use this technique to animate spring in motion analysis with other moving parts but i think that is not possible or ?can macro and motion analysis work together? , is there a another way to animate springs so that they compress in right relations to assembly mates..

Shashank, which email I should send the files.

Tomislav, I have send the files to you.

Hi Deepak i am a new member in this site and i have some problems, i was looking for a way to animate compression springs in a assembley ( in asembley i already have all other parts exept springs) so that the springs acts in proper way according to mate relations of other parts in asembley. I am new to animation in solid works so maybe i am working something totaly wrong .. Can you please send me the files for spring animation.
Thank you very much!! Sorry for my poor english! tglogovic1@gmail.com

Hi Deepak,
I just joined this forum.
Can you please send me the files for spring animation.
I want to learn how to do it.
Thanks.
Rgds,
