Integrated maintenance and production control of a deteriorating production system

چکیده
We consider a make-to-stock production/inventory system consisting of a single deteriorating machine which produces a single item. We formulate the integrated decisions of maintenance and production using a Markov Decision Process. The optimal dynamic policy is shown to have a rather complex structure which leads us to consider more implementable policies. We present a double-threshold policy and derive exact and approximate methods for evaluating the performance of this policy and computing its optimal parameters. A detailed numerical study demonstrates that the proposed policy and our approximate method for computing its parameters perform extremely well. Finally, we show that policies which do not address maintenance and production control decisions in an integrated manner can perform rather badly.

Optimization Models for a Deteriorating Single Server Queuing Production System
In this paper a single server queuing production system is considered which is subject to gradual deterioration. The system is discussed under two different deteriorating conditions. A planning horizon is considered and server which is a D/M/1 queuing system is gradually deteriorates through time periods. A maintenance policy is taken into account whereby the server is restored to its initial ...
متن کاملIntegration of the Decisions Associated with Maintenance Management and Process Control for a Series Production System
This paper studies a series production system through the integration of the decisions associated with Maintenance Management (MM) and Statistical Process Control (SPC). Hence, the primary question of the paper can be stated as follows: In a series production system, how can the decisions of MM and SPC be coordinated? To this end, an integrated mathematical model of MM and SPC is developed. Usi...
متن کاملAn integrated production and preventive maintenance planning model with imperfect maintenance in multi-state system
Production planning and maintenance are two important problems in manufacturing systems. Despite the relationship exists between these two problems due to sudden failures and production capacity occupied by maintenance activities, each of these problems planned separately and as a result program and model efficiencies reduce in the real world. The aim of integrated production and maintena...
متن کاملAn economic production model for deteriorating items and time dependent demand with rework and multiple production setups
Recently, much emphasis has given to study the control and maintenance of production inventories of the deteriorating items. Rework is one of the main issues in reverse logistic and green supply chain, since it can reduce production cost and the environmental problem. Many researchers have focused on developing rework model, but few of them have developed model for deteriorating items. Due to t...
متن کاملAn Integrated Aggregate Production Planning Model with Two-Phase Production System and Maintenance Costs
Aggregate production planning (APP) is one of the most important issues carried out in manufacturing environments which seeks efficient planning, scheduling and coordination of all production activities that optimizes the company's objectives. In this paper, we develop a mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model for an integrated aggregate production planning system with closed loop supply ...
