zetnie Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 I have a roller chain designed, which looks like a basic roller chain, but I really have no idea on how to make the sprocket and constrain the chain to the sprocket. Help will be really appreciated, thanks! Quote
shift1313 Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 Do you actually need a chain? and does the chain need to function? I drew one for a motorcycle project and it was a lot of work. There is a chain/sprocket creation tool in Inventor but it does'nt make a chain per say but a representation of a chain. For me I drew all the pieces of the chain. For an inner and outer link there were 10 parts. Then this link was used to make up my full length chain and constrain it to my sprockets. I didnt need a chain that rotated but i wanted one that had Sag like a real chain would and not be tight. Quote
