Two-Stage Imperfect Production Systems with Inspection Errors
نویسندگان
چکیده
The effect of imperfect production processes on lot sizing decisions received a lot of attention in the literature. These efforts have been almost confined to single stage production systems. The issue of imperfect production processes has not been adequately addressed in the context of multistage production/inventory systems. In this paper, we propose a two-stage production inventory model that takes into account the effect of imperfect production processes and inspection errors. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the proposed model.

Integrated production-Inventory model with price-dependent demand, imperfect quality, and investment in quality and inspection
In practice, manufacturing systems are never perfect and may have low quality outputs. Therefore, different decisions such as reprocessing, sale at lower prices or diminishing are made according to industry and market. This paper investigates the importance of supply chain coordination through developing two models in centralized decision-making for an imperfect quality manufacturing system wit...
متن کاملEconomic Production Quantity in Reworkable Production Systems with Inspection Errors, Scraps and Backlogging
The classical economic production quantity (EPQ) model is a well-known and commonly used inventory control technique. Common assumptions in this model are that all units produced are of perfect quality and shortage is not allowed, since in practice shortage, non-conforming product or scrap items are possible, these assumptions will underestimate the actual required quantity. The objective of th...
متن کاملOptimal Process Adjustment under Inspection Errors Considering the Cycle Time of Production
Process adjustment, also known as process targeting, is one of the classical problems in the field of quality control and production economics. In the process adjustment problem, it is assumed that process parameters are variables and the aim is to determine these parameters such that certain economic criteria are optimally satisfied. The aim of this paper is to determine the optimal process ad...

This paper deals with multi-stage lotsizing models for imperfect production processes. The e ect of imperfect quality on lotsizing decisions and e ect of inspection errors are taken into consideration in the proposed models. Numerical examples are presented for illustration purposes. The developed models are very helpful for justifying quality assurance and quality improvement e orts.
متن کاملEconomic production quantity model with imperfect-quality items, two-way imperfect inspection and sales return
In practices, not only production but inspection processes are often not perfect, thereby generating defects and inspection errors. Previous imperfect-quality inventory studies, however, have mostly focused on developing cost-minimizing models that do not consider imperfect inspection processes and related defect sales return issues despite their practical significance. Thus, this study propose...
