This is about a mode of assembly where in an assembly chamber
a single manipulator working alone on assembling a product comprised out of B³ parts.
B … See: Branching factor

This is complementary to:

Unlike in Assembly line assembly and Part streaming assembly
the needed length-of-assembly-motion-per-part-placed is more near the scale of the
product s (or the build chamber sF) rather than the scale of the inputs s/B.
This (& other aspects like general purpose capabilities) makes assembly slower.
