array of components
(OP)
I have a product with about 30 clamps and I'd like to attach a bracket to each one. Is there a way to do this without have to do each one separately?

RE: array of components
1) add all 30 brackets individually
2) create a product and add your clamp and bracket - moving them to the 30 places
3) If the clamps are in different locations but spaced planar you can you assembly re-use pattern. You will first need to create a CATpart with a user pattern of anything will work. I would pattern holes of a solid or gsd pattern points. Next in assembly design constrain the bracket to the initial piece of geometry. Then use ASD Re-Use pattern of the bracket and pattern in above catpart.
