How to screw a bolt in a threaded hole?

Post by Medowinner »

I have a box with a threaded hole and a bolt, how can I control the screw speed of the bolt? I tried making a revolute joint with a prismatic child and it didn't work, now I use only revolute and the thread in the model helps it to screw but with no control
How can I do this?

You can set screw pitch and use just one joint. See https://www.coppeliarobotics.com/helpFi ... joints.htm

I use the latest version 4.4.0 and can't find the screw joint, just revolute, prismatic and spherical
But my version is edu , is this the problem?

It is not a joint type itself, but you can set the “screw pitch” property of a regular joint and it becomes a screw.
