I need help with the movement of a carousel. Does anyone have any idea how to make different parts move up and down while the carousel is rotating?

You would assemble the parts with Mechanism connections instead of fixed assembly constraints. Use a Pin connection for the rotating carousel and Slider connections for the vertical motion. Then, in Mechanism Design, add servo motors to drive the rotation and the up/down movement. If you want a realistic carousel mechanism, use a cam-follower connection so the vertical motion is caused by the rotation.
