Assemble parts in solidworks

[john blue]

Hi,

I have parts in assembly in solidworks but how do i assemble them together? I also want to use bolts and nuts to fixed them. Is it possible for me to simulate them? Thanks in advance.

You align them using the "Mates" command. There is a toolbox that contains nuts and bolts that you can also insert and build in to the assembly with mates.
