Modern production of electronic equipment is characterized by a discrete approach, a make-to-order principle, and a variety of product ranges. The presence of many components and parts, as well as complex parameters for managing production processes and the use of manual planning methods, contribute to an increase in the number of unfinished orders and reduce the overall efficiency of such production. In addition, an important feature of this type of production is the assembly and assembly processes, which play a key role in ensuring the timely release of products, but their automation in the conditions of multi-product production is a complex task. The efficiency of assembly depends on the quality of operational decisions made at the workshop level, as well as on the ability to predict equipment availability, evaluate productivity, and eliminate bottlenecks. Synchronization of production assembly is ensured by implementing identical feed rates and use of parts, as well as establishing a constant proportionality between the initial stages of successive operations. Alignment of time intervals for the execution of individual operations and the creation of organizational and technical prerequisites for ensuring equality or proportionality of the feed rates and use of components are the key tasks of synchronization. In this context, synchronization of assembly production processes is defined as the coordinated implementation of two or more operations, characterized by synchronicity or a constant time shift in the moments of their start and end, as well as a balanced volume of production and consumption of components. The purpose of synchronization is to achieve consistency of the rhythms of all assembly stages with the rhythm of the final stage. The organization of synchronized production assumes uniform activity of all links in the production chain and requires a high degree of synchronicity of operations. Existing planning systems do not provide the ability to synchronize production processes and production plans. The article proposes a model for synchronizing assembly processes within the framework of developing an automated system for production planning. The efficiency of the proposed model and its integration within the framework of the developed automated system for planning assembly processes are considered. Software for an automated system for planning assembly and installation processes was developed in the form of a software package, and the developed software was integrated with the existing automated control system in instrument-making production.
