Hi,
I have an assembly with a movement as shown in the below pictures.
I can only make the movement completly up and down if I drag it slowly. As in VERY slowy.
Why so ?
I did a video of the troubled movement, please see link: Dropbox - Mates.avi

I just realized I had two "Limit Distance" between different parts that actually did the same.
I deleted one of them, and it works much smoother now :-)
Victor, you should mark your answer as correct then.
On a different note, I rarely use limit mates because they tend to be pretty flaky, especially when you mix them with flexible sub assemblies. By flaky, I mean that sometimes I will get errors, or have to do a full rebuild (CTRL Q) on an assembly every time I open it.
You can get the same essential function (not exactly, I know) with a single distance mate and configurations. Much less flaky from my experience.
Hi Dan,
I am glad to hear your experience.
I haven't encountered any problems in the past while using 'Limit Distance', but keep in mind my assmeblies don't usually get very advanced :-)
I will keep your suggestion in mind for the future, 'Distance' mate and configurations sound like a solid solution :-)
