Hi all

i want to know that if i have a mechanism and i want to do its dynamic analysis in creo simulate.Now the only information i have is that of the rpm and power of motors connected with the pinion gears.

From where i should get the forces and loads that is applied to the meshed gears.Whether i should calculate all these forces or torque manually? or there is any other method that can done in the software to avoid manuall calculation.

The first question to answer is: what do you want to calculate with this dynamic analysis ?

Mechanically speaking, you cannot often impose the speed and the torque of a motor.

It is defined by the equilibrium point between the torque/speed curve of the motor and the load curve of the mechanism driven by the motor.
