Problem on how to assembly 100 links of chain

(OP)
I have a problem on I have to create chain. It contains about 100 links.
I don't know how to assembly 100 links together without one-by-one assembly.
Could anyone guide me how to assembly this chain?

Thank in advance
Charoenpon

Why not user "reuse" in assembly design where you can use a userdefined pattern or a circular pattern to define position of each link?

RE: Problem on how to assembly 100 links of chain

userdefined pattern will have the same orientation for each elements and the position are defined by points in a sketch. Circular pattern could give circular orientation to elements.

Full control of shape pattern and orientation will be done by KP.

Other solution might be a sript...
