Assembly Analysis
Assembly Analysis requires
reviewing the tools, methods, parts, sub-assemblies, components
and mating operations. A program to develop a plan to describe
the assembly process will be as detailed as the assembly planner
chooses. The plan may not describe all of the details of the process.
The plan should include a collection of steps or operations, which
must be performed, and some information about the order in which
those steps or operations must be performed. The analysis results
in a plan that describes the operations, and develops the sequence
of operations as totally ordered, sequential, simultaneous, monotone
or linear.
