How can be possible to model a revolute joint which is limited with upper and lower hard stops in simmechanics 2nd generation? I just want to limit the movement of a revolute joint which is exist in my mechanism…this is previously done in simmechanics first generation environment like as http://www.mathworks.com/support/solutions/en/data/1-ACC6PN/index.html?solution=1-ACC6PN but I don't know how to do it in 2nd generation because there isn't the Revolute Rotational Interface block in 2nd generation block library as same as first generation.

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.
Hi Morgan,
The Cycloidal Drive block is a SimDriveline block, which means it connects directly to other Simscape mechanical blocks (but not to SimMechanics). The reason is that SimMechanics uses a separate 3-D mechanical domain, while Simscape/SimDriveline is all 1-D rotation OR 1-D translation.
The way you connect Simscape blocks to a SimMechanics block is to place them along a joint primitive. There's a submission on the File Exchange which shows how you can do this.
Using the blocks from the above submission, you can interface your Simscape rotational domain with a SimMechanics revolute primitive as shown below.
