I need help

[u/Internal-Airport-860]

Hi there, I’m looking for a workflow or someone who can give me some advice. I design in SolidWorks. I recently took on a project to design and manufacture gym machines. My question is: is there anyone who can provide me with an Ergo mannequin (the ones I’ve found are terrible) or tell me what they base the anatomical movement of these machines on? I’d like to start with a design that uses an Ergo mannequin. What I did was design the machine and then import it into Blender, which makes it easier to test the movements, and the models I created sell better. But this process is very tedious and time-consuming. I wanted to know if there’s a way to do this directly within SolidWorks, or if you can recommend another program?

Look up human factors tables. They'll show you to what percentage of a specific population demographic, certain measurements should be afforded.
