A track chain system consists of the track links and connecting bushings. A single pin is used to connect two links of a track chain system. The user must create one-reference track link from which all track links are copied. Once a track link is created, it is registered as a clone body. The inertial properties of the assembled track link are automatically duplicated to be the same as the values of the clone body. Therefore, the track properties should be defined carefully prior to assembling track chain system. The bushing connecting two track links is automatically created when track chain system is assembled.
