This set of examples shows you how to create parameterized parts for Simscape Multibody and example MATLAB scripts for defining general extrusions. The parts have been used in a wide range of examples to show how these blocks enable you to rapidly model mechanisms. Consistent orientation of frames at the interfaces make it easy to combine them.

Open the project by double-clicking on Multibody_Parts_Library.prj

Within the Simscape Multibody Parts Library, you will find parameterized gear assemblies. The gear constraint blocks require that other constraints in the mechanism correctly position and orient the frames associated with the gear constraint. The library blocks group the required blocks together and parameterize them so that frames are always in the right place.
There are many ways they can be combined, this library shows you one way to do it.

Example: Planetary Gear Assembly
