  Hello guys, I'm trying to simulate a rack and pinion system and i'm struggling to set a new coordinate system created by me on the remote displacement configuration. The coordinatate system consist on a cylindrical with axis on Z and define dy global axis on Z, placed on the center of de pinion as the folow image:

  See if it will accept a Cartesian Coordinate System.

  Yes it accepts, but a I need to make a cylindrical one so I can rotate the pinion. There is a way out?

  The Remote Displacement has the control for X,Y,Z, and RotX, RotY, RotZ. You can constrain or allow rotation on any axis.

  the error "Could not transfer loads and constraints to the solver." pops out
