Catia Assembly: Doubt in Constraints

I was doing a assembly and i encountered with this problem. i made the concentric constrain with the cylinder and hydraullic jack to align with their axes.. but when i move the jack axially it is moving a outside the cylinder. I want that jack to be stopped at the cylinder end. can any know how to do that? thank you in advance

Hi friend!!

could you please attachment a printscreen about your issue?

or another option, to do is, Could you attach your model I mean the assembly.

Have a good day,

Best Regards,

First : Never use Hybrid conception on catia V5.

as you fix the first part and the second one is in concetrical constraint use this

Hi friend, I was checking your model and you are OK, with add fix to cylinder holder, and move the cylinder. I've attached an image, as a reference.

Currently I dont know if you are making a animation or kinematic movement.

Another question for you, is are they all the components? or they are missing some components.

whatever comments or suggestions just let me know.

I guess the question is: How do you move it?
The compass won't care about constraints.
If you youse "manipulation" and activate "with respect to constraints" and "stop manipulate on clash" it should work.
