Multibody System Dynamics

The 3D Mechanism workshop of Automation Studio™ offers a suite of powerful tools to create and simulate sophisticated spatial multibody dynamic systems. The workshop allows you to construct models with interconnected bodies, constraints, applied forces; and then it predicts the dynamic responses by automatically formulating differential motion equations and solving them numerically.

The Workshop Offers:

Effortlessly place and orient bodies, joints, gears, or external loads in 3D
Switch between skeleton representation and real-world CAD models
Extensive collection of joints and transmissions
Easy integration of actuators such as hydraulic cylinder or motor shaft
Advanced simulation capabilities for 3D multibody dynamics
Wide range of state variables (positions, velocities, forces, torques) for analysis
Seamless integration and co-simulation with hydraulics, electrical, pneumatics, math and PLC workshops
