An aero engine rotor air floatation assembling method and device based on a gantry structure belong to mechanical assembling technology. The present invention can effectively solve the problem of poor coaxality after the aero engine rotor is assembled and has the characteristics of high coaxality after the rotor is assembled, reduced vibration, mounting easiness, high flexibility and improved engine performance. The measuring method and device are: determining rotary reference based on a rotary air bearing; determining the angular positioning of a rotary table according to a grating ruler; extracting the radial error of the radial mounting plane and the inclination error of the axial mounting plane of the rotor based on the four-probe measuring device to obtain the influencing weight of this rotor to the assembled rotor on coaxality; measuring respectively all the rotors required for assembling to obtain the influencing weight of each rotor to the assembled rotor on coaxality; vector optimizing the weight of each rotor to obtain the assembling angle of each rotor.
