Production Planning and Inventory Control in a Remanufacturing Production System

چکیده
The management of production and inventory control associated activities in remanufacturing production system has received attention by practitioners in the last two decades. This is due to the increased productivity, limited supply of virgin materials, stringent environmental requirements for product disposal and treatment as well as substatial change in global sustainability regulations. In order to constantly attain the supply chain cost savings for manufacturing operations, an integrated production planning model in remanufacturing by considering component obsolescence is developed. The aim of this developed model is to minimise an overall costs for production with remanufacturing operations. A numerical application is demonstrated to show its practical usefulness and flexibility in a remanufacturing production plan by considering different obsolete time periods for used components from returns streams. Finally, the contributions of this study and future works are discussed.

System Dynamics modelling of a production and inventory system for remanufacturing to evaluate system improvement strategies
Remanufacturing activity views the reverse supply chain of reclaimed goods as integral to the traditional supply chain to the consumer. At the end of the useful life of products, a reverse supply process is activated in which unwanted materials and products are recovered from end users to recapture some of their value. Therefore, planning for the traditional supply chain of goods must take into...
متن کاملProduction planning and inventory control with remanufacturing and disposal
In this paper we consider a stochastic inventory system with production, remanufacturing, and disposal operations. Customer demands must either be fulfilled from the production of new products or by the remanufacturing of used products. Used products are either remanufactured or disposed of. To coordinate production, remanufacturing and disposal operations efficiently, we extend the PUSH and PU...
متن کاملProduction Planning and Inventory Control in Hybrid Systems with Remanufacturing
This paper is on production planning and inventory control in systems where manufacturing and remanufacturing operations occur simultaneously. Typical for these hybrid systems is, that both the output of the manufacturing process and the output of the remanufacturing process can be used to fulfil customer demands. Here, we consider a relatively simple hybrid system, related to a single componen...
متن کاملProduction Planning of a Failure-Prone Manufacturing/Remanufacturing System with Production-Dependent Failure Rates
This paper deals with the production-dependent failure rates for a hybrid manufacturing/remanufacturing system subject to random failures and repairs. The failure rate of the manufacturing machine depends on its production rate, while the failure rate of the remanufacturing machine is constant. In the proposed model, the manufacturing machine is characterized by a higher production rate. The ma...
متن کاملA System Dynamics Model for Reducing Uncertainty in remanufacturing Systems
The management of remanufacturing activities requires new techniques in order to improve these systems for cost optimized operations. However, several factors make the operations of the reverse logistics process difficult. In particular, uncertainties in quantity, quality and timing of returns negatively affect remanufacturing activities such as production planning and inventory control. In thi...
