Chain to Sprocket
Hi all. Does anyone know how to connect a chain to a sprocket in Inventor using constraints? I have built a 3/8ths pitch chain with cbills' chain I-parts. Each link has a full range of motion. The chain was put together by flush constraints. I now have a 3/8ths pitched sprocket from the First Cad Library. My strategy was to mate the outside edge of the sprocket to the inside of the chain, and then use tangent contraints to attach the cylinder things (I don't know the term) on the chain to the inside of the teeth on the sprocket. It only let me do this at three points. Any ideas?
