Re: Getting a piston to work in a Solidworks motion study

You need to give a bit more info.

Does the cylinder come in as an assembly or a single part?

If assembly, can you separately select on the piston? If a part we have more work.

Is the cylinder cylindrical or square?

The base of the cylinder must be fixed. The piston must translate through mates. Usually a concentric mate is good to start.
