1. Based on the product structure diagram (overall assembly drawing), segment the product into assembly units (components, sub-assemblies, and parts) and develop corresponding assembly methods.
2. Break down the assembly process for each component and part.
3. Establish clear assembly process guidelines, define inspection criteria, and determine appropriate inspection methods.
4. Choose the appropriate tools and lifting devices needed for the assembly process.
5. Decide on the methods for transferring parts and required tools.
6. Calculate the standard assembly time, excluding the time taken for the transportation of parts.
