Rear spoiler design with ASOM v7: six-bar linkage with 3 planes (2/2)
In cases where a third plane condition is not offered by a synthesis, script data sources can also be used as an even more convenient way to check a middle plane condition by reproducing the relevant part of the canvas in a diagram and adding some extra indications.

This example shows part of the kinematics of a hospital bed or an examination couch. The bed has two different actuators or spindle drives, one for the height adjustment of the entire bed and one for lifting of the foot area.
Friction cone and self-locking
This example demonstrates how to check for self-locking in the kinematics software ASOM v7, which can occur in the presence of force-dependent friction. It also illustrates how this fits in with the concept of the friction cone.
