I want to build a Screw model in SimMultibody. And I want to stop the Motion at a certain position, now i think i should use translational hard stop from Simscape foundation Library. But i don't find a same or simple example that the hard stop with this joint. So how make a stop possible by this joint.

You can connect a lead screw joint from Simscape Multibody to a translational hard stop from Simscape foundation library. Have a look at the model "Joint Limits and Friction Methods in a Hinge" in the Simscape Multibody Multiphysics Library to see how to interface the two components.

In that library you will find example model >>sm_ssci_electric_lift_trsn which models a lead screw with a hard stop. It uses a custom Simscape block to create the hard stop. --Steve
