Impact of Cannibalization in a Remanufacturing Supply Chain
نویسندگان
چکیده
Using a Bass Diffusion model we investigate the effect of cannibalization within a hybrid manufacturing /remanufacturing/refurbishing system. The hybrid system consists of newly manufactured products, remanufactured products, and refurbished products. The impact of the collection, remanufacturing, and refurbishing ratios on economic performance are simulated and analyzed. We numerically calculate profit and investigate the relationship between the demand for manufactured and remanufactured products. We conclude that the proposed hybrid manufacturing/remanufacturing/refurbishing model can evaluate the cannibalization effect quantitatively and that the hybrid manufacturing/remanufacturing/refurbishing system is more profitable than a non-remanufacturing system, even when cannibalization is present.

A Mixed Integer Linear Programming Model for the Design of Remanufacturing Closed–loop Supply Chain Network
Closed-loop supply chain network design is a critical issue due to its impact on both economic and environmental performances of the supply chain. In this paper, we address the problem of designing a multi-echelon, multi-product and capacitated closed-loop supply chain network. First, a mixed-integer linear programming formulation is developed to maximize the total profit. The main contribution...
متن کاملOptimizing a reverse supply chain including transportation, operation, maintenance and remanufacturing costs
Reverse supply chain is a process dealing with the backward flows of used/damaged products or materials. Reverse supply chain includes activities such as collection, inspection, reprocess, disposal and redistribution. A well-organized reverse supply chain can provide important advantages such as economic and environmental ones. In this study, we propose a general framework and formulate a m...
متن کاملDesign of An Integrated Robust Optimization Model for Closed-Loop Supply Chain and supplier and remanufacturing subcontractor selection
The development of optimization and mathematical models for closed loop supply chain (CLSC) design has attracted considerable interest over the past decades. However, the uncertainties that are inherent in the network design are challenging the capabilities of the developed tools. In CLSC Uncertainty in demand is major source of uncertainty. The aim of this paper, therefore, is to present a Rob...
متن کاملQuantitative models for determining prices in a remanufacturing system with exclusive and competitive market structure
Remanufacturing is an industrial process that makes used products reusable. Remanufacturing is a way to establish a closed-loop supply chain. One of the important aspects in both reverse logistics and remanufacturing is pricing of returned and remanufactured products (called cores) that it has been noticed in this paper. In addition, in this paper the researchers have tried to present a mathema...
متن کاملProcess planning for closed-loop aerospace manufacturing supply chain and environmental impact reduction
A considerable amount of work has recently been applied to the development of processes to reduce negative environmental impacts of disposal products. Different waste reduction options such as direct reuse, repair, refurbishing, cannibalization, and remanufacturing were introduced to overcome these shortages. This paper studies an integrated system of manufacturing and remanufacturing using a c...
