simulare attuatore lineare solidworks motion

[Viperax]

Hello.
I would like to simulate a simple lifting mechanism starting from the 3d model of solidworks, applying a hydraulic piston between two points to obtain the performance of the piston force during lifting.
I expected to be able to insert the actuator by selecting the two pins of attack as I did with visual nastran or working model but the linear actuator function lets me select only one pin.
Am I wrong?
I trust in your advice, I searched long and wide, I hope to be stuck on a cabbage.

I have already used this function for this purpose and I have always inserted a simplified model of the actuator.
basically I had a cylinder encumbrance in two parts on which to apply action and reaction.

re_solidworks thanks for the answer.
I tried and tried but I don't come out.
ok, inserting a simplified model of the actuator is not a problem.
If I put a force on the two faces of hydrostatic push of the actuator I can also make it move, but I find a few information from the simulation.
I have always stretched the actuators with a fixed speed and then go to read the diagram of the force that the actuator developed instantly during the movement, so as to have confirmation of calculations made by hand.
I attach an image where you can understand betterhttp://img232.imageshack.us/img232/4840/immaginewb.jpg

I think the problem will not be so much to make him move... but to make you have a true diagram since you do not care about the movement itself, but if you manage to make a certain effort, a problem not to be underestimated could be the resolution of the calculation of the engine you will apply.... I have never tried to do something like what you described, I want to try because it intrigues me, so if I can combine something I will let you know:biggrin:.
