## Reviews

### "An optimal 2D tool for designing mechanisms." — 4.0/5

> **Darwin Reynell** | *7 August 2018* | Oil & Energy | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: You have in each union, trajectories, speeds, accelerations, forces, among others. It is very useful. I had contact with this software during my university course called "Dynamics of mechanisms and machinery". It is practical, easy to learn, you have many information in the configurations made, even if the number of links used is high. Time is a limiting factor in the design process, in that sense, working 2D model helps to dismute those times. It allows to be more effective in the conceptual design process. You do not need to create a physical prototype.
> 
> **Cons**: Obviously the 3D design exceeds the 2D design. However, from the point of view of conceptual design it is very useful, since you have the calculations quickly and reliably.
> 
> Design of a mechanism to change the speed in a variable chain transmission system. With this mechanism it was possible to determine the required positions to reach certain speeds in the transmission cones. It was very useful in determining the forces and thus obtaining the state of charges.

### "2D simulation" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *18 July 2019* | Design | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I like most about Working Model 2D is that you are able to import models from your CAD system which makes it quick to get the geometry you are interested in.
> 
> **Cons**: The learning curve can be steep, but that is true of most simulation software.  Also, you have to manage your expectations.  The results you get will not exactly match real life.
