How to create the relationship of two rotating gears

mn-banjar opened this issue · comments

Hi, I'm trying to use this plugin to create urdf file of a robot arm.
How to configure two rotating gears?

Hi, I'm sorry I didn't get the question right away. The Modeling Walkthroug describes the way you can model a robot arm in general. But what kind of configuration do you mean with two rotating gears? Normally, for each driven rotating axis you create a joint and a motor in urdf. You can create joints without motors for passive DOFs and you can use mimic joints to clone movements between joints.

Thank you I solved the issue
yes, It was about using mimic joints
Actually, I wrote the tag by hand on the urdf file
