Detailed Description

A Prismatic Link A prismatic link (also known as a slider) provides one degree of translational freedom for the constraint. The link connects two bodies, at a given position, and extends along a specified axis.

The diagram indicates the central point of two geometries. The arrow indicates the axis about which the link extends. The point the arrow extends from indicates the starting position for the slider.
