Dear all,

I am having difficulties in giving BC to 3D tube spinning problem. I want to rotate rigid roller around the workpiece (like nut travels in bolt). Also because of the friction between roller and the tube, roller should rotate around its own axis.

I am successful in rotating roller around the tube but cant rotate roller around its own axis due to frictional contact.

Can anyone please tell me how to do that?
I am attaching inp file as well as image of the process.
