Spur gear connection in Simscape Multibody

Hello. So i first made the spur gears using the autodesk inventor then exported them into the Simscape. Now when I try to run it, the error "['gb2/Solver Configuration']: *** Model not assembled: position violation *** Resolve this issue in order to simulate the model" is showing.

Any ideas on how to fix this error? Thanks in advance.

The position violation error usually means that a joint in a closed kinematic loop was not assembled correctly. Each joint is associated with a set of constraints that must be satisfied. For instance, for a revolute joint to assemble, its base and follower frame origins must be coincident, and its base and follower z-axes must point in the same direction.

To resolve the issue, you can debug the model by observing the joints in the mechanics explorer and check whether any joint is offset or misaligned.
