Planar mechanism simulator

Build linkages with pins, sliders, cams and gears, add a motor and watch them move. The tool computes the degrees of freedom (Grübler), the Grashof condition, the transmission angle, the time ratio and the position, velocity and acceleration of every point over a cycle, plus the input torque.

What you can do

Frequently asked questions

What is the Grashof condition?

In a four-bar linkage, if s + l ≤ p + q (shortest plus longest does not exceed the other two), at least one link can rotate fully.

How are the degrees of freedom counted?

With Grübler's equation: M = 3(n − 1) − 2j₁ − j₂.
