Brief info:
The above two plates are connected with a bolt & nut,The above slots are co-axial slots.
In-order to define the above condition in SolidWorks Simulation, I am using bolt connector but unable to define the connection at the central axis of the slots(bcoz the slot faces are flat at the connection region).
In fabrication exactly same is done, So kindly letme know how to create the similar set-up in SolidWorks Simulation?
I cannot replace the slots with holes (Bcoz slots are provided as manufacturing tolerence stack-up for ease of installation at the site)
Please provide me any solution or work around.
I acknowledge valuble suggestions from you all.
Regards
Kiran
Kiran,
I'm not sure I understand what your question is. Are you looking to define a bolt connection for a finite element analysis? If so, you might want to move this question to the Simulation/Simulation forum. Are you trying to mate a bolt with two parts? Then you might want to move this question to the SolidWorks/Assemblies forum. I see that you are actually working with a multi-body part. Do you want to make a third body that will be the bolt and have it centered in both slots? If so, you should probably move this to the SolidWorks/Parts and Features forum.
For the last question, I would probably put a point at the center of the center line for one or both slot sketches, then show the sketch.

P.S. I see you have already gotten a couple of replies to your second identical post. I would suggest that you delete this post.
