Optimal Lot Sizing Policy for an Unreliable Manufacturing System Under Cost-Effectiveness Criterion
نویسندگان
چکیده
The traditional method of determining the optimal Economic Manufacturing Quantity (EMQ) policy for an unreliable production system is the minimization of the expected cost per unit time in the steady state which does not consider the reliability of the system in true sense. The purpose of this article is to introduce an alternative criterion of optimality called cost effectiveness which takes into account both cost and reliability aspects of the production system. The proposed EMQ model is formulated under general failure and general repair time distributions. The criteria for the existence and uniqueness of the optimal production time which maximizes the cost effectiveness are derived. Finally, a numerical example is taken to compare the cost effective production policy with the corresponding average cost one.

This article develops an integrated JIT lot-splitting model for a single supplier and a single buyer. In this model we consider reduction of setup time, and the optimal lot size are obtained due to reduced setup time in the context of joint optimization for both buyer and supplier, under deterministic condition with a single product. Two cases are discussed: Single Delivery (SD) case, and Multi...

This paper studies the optimal producer′s replenishment policy for an economic production quantity (EPQ) model with rework and breakdown taking place in backorder replenishing time. A recent published article has studied the lot-sizing problem on an imperfect quality EPQ model. However, another reliability factor random machine breakdown is inevitable in most real-life production systems. To de...
