To solve the problem of insufficient utilization of equipment and low production efficiency of the fuselage production line of certain aircraft program, this article analyzes and studies the fuselage assembly process and assembly station cycle, establishes the geometric model and logic simulation model for the production line by means of the discrete event simulation software Plant simulation to simulate the assembly of large components and find out the bottleneck restricting production capacity increase in the assembly process. The simulation results have been applied to optimize the takt time and operation process of fuselage assembly line, with a set of production line improvement plan generated, which realizes the resource balance and capacity increase of the production line.
