Dummy joint break apart

[Mehmet]

Hi all,

My robot model joint was breaking apart,
I could not find any solution about it,
But, recently I have discovered that breaking apart joint has dummy connection,
I have tested it by changing place of dummy connection in tree.

So, why dummy connection breaks apart and what should I do to prevent it?

Not sure what you mean with breaking apart. Maybe make sure you read the design considerations considerations 6-8 on the Designing dynamic simulations page.

Cheers

You can see in below link a part of my design,



In my design, there are close loop mechanism,

Because of that I use dummy,

The place which I use dummy, breaks, as you can see in link.

In another joints there are not any break
