An imperfect repair strategy for two-dimensional warranty
نویسندگان
چکیده
The objective of this study is to develop a warranty servicing strategy, based on imperfect and minimal repairs, that minimises the total warranty servicing cost. For pre-specified degrees of repair, the expected warranty servicing cost is minimised by optimally partitioning a two-dimensional rectangular warranty region into n disjoint subregions. We numerically illustrate the imperfect repair strategy and provide a comparison with previously studied warranty repair strategies.

Warranty Servicing with Imperfect Repair for Products Sold with a Two-Dimensional Warranty
In this paper, a new servicing strategy with imperfect repair is defined and studied for the manufacturer of a product sold with a two-dimensional warranty. The strategy is based on a specified region of the warranty defined in terms of age and usage, with the first failure in the region rectified by an imperfect repair and all other failures being minimally repaired. Product failures are model...
متن کاملTwo echelon-two indenture extended warranty distribution network under imperfect preventive maintenance policies
Nowadays, offering extended warranty is considered as a lucrative source of income from the perspective of the after-sale service providers. Meanwhile, the main concern is presence or absence of base warranty and strategies adopted by the manufacturer during this period. Moreover, extended warranty structure must be responsive and customer oriented, which not only control the services cost but ...

An effective warranty servicing strategy should be made considering both warranty cost and product availability. Based on the two-dimensional free repair warranty, a strategy combining the imperfect preventive maintenance and minimal repair is proposed where the imperfect preventive maintenances are implemented in a special subregion of the warranty and all other failures are repaired minimally...
متن کاملA two-dimensional warranty servicing strategy based on reduction in product failure intensity
The cost of servicing a warranty depends, amongst other factors, on the type of repair performed under warranty. Although ‘‘all minimal repair’’ and ‘‘all replacement’’ policies are easy to implement and analyze, they are not always feasible and/or practical. Having a combination of different types of repair often leads to lower warranty servicing costs. In this article, to reduce the warranty ...
متن کاملOptimal Costs of a Two-dimensional Warranty Servicing Strategy with an Imperfect Repair Option
A warranty policy for a product should balance the interests of both producer and consumer. Consumer protection is typically provided by a guarantee of replacement or some form of repair of the product failing within a promised warranty period, while an approach to provide a corresponding protection for the manufacturer is to limit the maximum usage allowed under warranty. Such warranty policie...
