Motion Path Help
I have two motion paths that I am trying to move simultaneously. In a machine, I have a beam (x-axis) that is attached to two parallel fixed rails (y-axes). This beam moves between the two fixed rails using two motors. The beam has a head on it that moves from side to side. How do I utilize motion paths to have the beam move horizontally (up and down) between the two rails while simultaneously moving the attached head vertically (side-to-side) across the beam?
You can set a motion path on and object, then group that object with an invisible object. Then add a motion to the group as well.
Jennifer, are you looking for something like this? (See attached)
Yes, that is exactly it.
