Joints and Motions
Cylindrical - joint allowing 1 translational and 1 rotational degree of freedom about or along a common axis
Free Motion - joint allowing 3 translational and 3 rotational degrees of freedom
Planar - joint allowing 2 translational and 1 rotational degree of freedom (the rotational degree of freedom is about an axis perpendicular to the two translational axes)
Prescribed Rotation - motion driver that converts input signals into sequential rotational motion
Prescribed Translation - motion driver that converts input signals into 3-D translational motion
Prismatic - joint allowing 1 translational degree of freedom along a given axis
Revolute - joint allowing 1 rotational degree of freedom about a given axis
Spherical - joint allowing 3 rotational degrees of freedom
Universal - joint allowing 2 rotational degrees of freedom about 2 orthogonal axes
XYZ Translational - joint allowing 3 translational degrees of freedom
