This is a pretty big topic to respond to.  But if a list of things that need to be considered off of the top of the head would be: 

1) component count versus line station count.
2) Targeted through put time or efficiency
3) staffing:  do you have extra's to handle bin fills or restroom breaks?  If not the line will have to stop or slow down considerably if an operator has to step away.  
4) Part values: separate like parts that could easily be confused
5) operator experience: more experience can have a few more parts
6) immediate continual processing into a wave or racking
7) part preprepping, PCB prepping, parts that are not candidates for line assembly (then define how those parts and when those parts are added)

Sorry, need coffee but that is a quick list from me.
