Problems of Creo Assembly

[AW_11698529]

Creo 9.0.4.0 Educational Edition

I came across this problem when I try to use a pin connection to assemble the component "SELF-LOCKING-MECHANISM.ASM". 

The assembly was smooth and seems no problem, but when this is done I try to drag the component to see if its going to rotate correctly, Then this pin connection is not working and software had a small error reply, I cannot correctly drag this part. 

The software tells me that "The connection "Connection_29" of component SELF-LOCKING-MECHANISM.ASM from CLIMBING-ASM.ASM with id path [ 132 ] will be suppressed because of invalid constraint(s)." 

All the related information are highlighted in the pictures above. 

Hoping to find any skilled people that can help me to sort this out. 

Much Much grateful thanks!!!

Hi,

I cannot open your assembly because I use commercial license. But I guess that the problem can be caused by assembly references shown in following picture.

My suggestion - do following test:

• create new axis in climbing-asm.asm
• create new axis in self-locking-mechanism.asm
• assemble new instance of self-locking-mechanism.asm into climbing-asm.asm using pin connection
  • select two above mentioned axes as references of pin connection
• try rotating new instance of self-locking-mechanism.asm

If rotation of new instance of self-locking-mechanism.asm works well than you can modify your original connection.

Note: Maybe the problem is not caused by assembly references. It can be caused by entity you selected at the start of Drag action.
