1) First you need to construct a precedence chart of tasks. For example:
A ----> B ----> C ----> D
2) Next, do time study to determine how much time required to perform each task.
A (4 mins) ----> B (2 mins) ----> C (2 mins) ----> D (2 mins)
3) Find the takt time. Takt time = available production time per day/customer demand per day
4) Calculate the minimum number of workstations required, given the task times above. Below is the formula:
Min # workstations = Total time for tasks divided by takt time
Hope it helps!

for thrust balancing.
Assembling line balancing?
Balancing an assembling line mean to have the same cycle time on each operation, if your assembly line have X persons and you need to have a finish good each "Y" seconds try to assign tasks in each operation with out passing the Y seconds. I'd like to recommend you to review also TAKT TIME.
