Creo Belts

[Umar-Siddique]

Hi, I was trying to add a belt mechanism in creo. But I cannot seem to select references for the pulley. Please help. I cannot select any surface or edge for the references. I have also tried selecting a belt plane. Please help!

Hi,

I would like to modelize the mechanism of a system of 1 toothed pulley/2 guidance pulleys/1 toothed belt. But it is not a standard configuration. I would like to realize a linear move of a 3 sliders independantly in a linear guidance. The system looks like that :

The system is based on this mechanism : 

When I put a motor inlet linked to the toothed pulley (the biggest one), I would like that the slider moves. I would like to realize that in the mechanism application in Creo.

The problem is that Creo always recognize a closed belt, but in this case this is not.

I hope I am clear enough. Thanks in advance for your answers
