2.1.5.1. Independent Axis Workflow
With independent motors, each motor works alone to move the load in the
single-axis, independent workflow, so the force/torque output stands isolated. An
example is the single-axis lifter mechanism (
Figure 98
) where one motor drives
the load.

SolidWorks Motion software supports linear and rotary motors. For an
independent motor workflow, there are two options for motion:
• Translational (linear motion)
• Rotational (rotary motion)
