The modular delivery for aircraft nose requires that the assembly of system components should be assem-bled after the structural components have been assembled.Currently,assembly workshops commonly employ a sin-gle fixed station for the assembly of nose system components,resulting in low production efficiency and long deliver-y cycles.To address the production capacity requirements for aircraft nose,this study focuses on the integrated as-sembly of system components in a specific civil aircraft nose and divides its assembly process and stations based on serial-parallel constraints.The pulse cycle is determined,and the layout of the pulse workshop is calculated using the SLP(systematic layout planning)analysis method.The FlexSim simulation analysis was conducted to evaluate the existing production line layout and the distribution of pulsating production lines.The results show that the appli-cation of pulsating production line significantly improved production efficiency,providing support for the specific implementation of the pulsating production line in the integration assembly of the aircraft nose system.
