-- Opsætning:

declare @Device table(DeviceId int primary key, Parts varchar(1000))
declare @Part table(PartId int identity(1,1) primary key, PartName varchar(100))
declare @DevicePart table(DeviceId int, PartId int)

insert @Device
values
    (1, 'Part1, Part2, Part3'),
    (2, 'Part2, Part3, Part4'),
    (3, 'Part1')

--Script:

declare @DevicePartTemp table(DeviceId int, PartName varchar(100))

insert @DevicePartTemp
select DeviceId, ltrim(x.value('.', 'varchar(100)'))
from
(
    select DeviceId, cast('<x>' + replace(Parts, ',', '</x><x>') + '</x>' as xml) XmlColumn
    from @Device
)tt
cross apply
    XmlColumn.nodes('x') as Nodes(x)


insert @Part
select distinct PartName
from @DevicePartTemp

insert @DevicePart
select tmp.DeviceId, prt.PartId
from @DevicePartTemp tmp 
    join @Part prt on
        prt.PartName = tmp.PartName

-- Resultat:
