Hey guys, Is it possible to model a rubber track that has fexibility so that it can be shown to animate in Solidworks? Im tring to model a robot with a rubber track and would like to show it moving and not just as a rigid part. Thanks

I had to draw an assembly with moving springs before, the only way I could figure out how to made the springs compress was to right some code to do it. Perhaps there is another way but I dont know of any.
