To ensure the movement of our mechanism works, we decided to focus on the movement of our slotted link. Our kinematic analysis is outlined below with the following link lengths, angles, and velocities:
a = 36.401
theta2 = 120
c1 = 60.828
theta1 = 0
omega2 = 2
c2 = 155.811
b2 = 153
The values for the links were taken directly from our CAD model, while theta2 was chosen arbitrarily within a reasonable range.
