  • Trouble Rigging Hinge Setup

    Posted by Luke Barnard on June 1, 2020 at 5:35 pm

    Hi Folks,

    I am trying to rig a hinge for a door setup and need some help.

    The principle is a motorized arm will rise up pushing the brackets and mechanism to raise and hold a door open at 80 degrees. I have tried to use IK joints but I am not sure the exact setup, this is new to me and seems complex.

    Does anyone know what a typical setup would be for a hinge mechanism?

    I cannot seem to upload a photo either, will keep trying.

    Many thanks
