interaction between gears

[alefellin]

Good evening,
I'm an engineering student and I'm dabbling in the realization of a 3d model of a very common autotraction differential.
I am stuck at the point where I have to "synchronize" the four gears of satellites and planetary. I tried to pursue different paths,
At first I created a conical couple consisting of a satellite and a planetarium, they work correctly, but at the time when I create their speculative copy I can't make them interact (I have two conical couples acting independently).
in the second test I created 4 conical gears and I bound them to their axes and their respective distances, after which I activated their "contact set" and the "contact solver"; When I simulate the rotation of one of the gears, the system slows down, or all the provisions of my components are changed.

How do you advise me to act?

Thank you in advance
good work at all

forget the contact solver, will enter into crisis.

the streets are two and you can combine.

1) use the design accelerator (environment together> design) to design all types and couplings of gears you need.
in the various couplings will already be as you say "synchronized", moreover in the parts will create automatic control plans (reset position, other couplings, etc)

2) uses the constraints of motion (which among other things are the same that inventor is self-created by drawing them from the design accelerator.

Thank you so much!! I solved through the constraints of motion! I didn't even think about it.
Good day
