for this assembly to have no degrees of freedom, a myriad mates is needed.
what is the most efficient way to handle this task? A group?
would it have been better to build it in a part studio?
and why am I getting this message ?

    The robots.txt error is a forum bug, its been there for a while when pasting links.

    When you imported these pumps, did they come into an assembly in the correct locations? If so, just put a big group mate around everything.

    If the import was only the raw parts, and you built the assembly natively in OS, then you did way more work than necessary. You should have built subassemblies, and then used patterns of the subassemlies.

    the pumps and valves come into the assembly in the correct positions, yes, if I mate each one on a hole on the supporting bracket
