We study spare parts inventory control for an aircraft component repair shop. Inspection of a defective component reveals which spare parts are needed to repair it, and in what quantity. Spare part shortages delay repairs, while aircraft operators demand short component repair times. Current spare parts inventory optimization methods cannot guarantee the performance on the component level, whic...

Maintenance is an effort to maintain a heavy equipment unit keep it in good condition. One of the techniques performance by carrying out maintenance management which combination various activities such as monitoring, scheduling, repairing, and inventory control. part aims ensure availability spare parts warehouse so that can increase efficiency time. The purpose this study calculate supply fast...

As the development of autonomous ships is underway in maritime industry, automation ship spare part management has become an important issue. However, there been little dedicated devices or applications for ships. This study aims to develop a Raspberry Pi-based embedded application that identifies type and quantity parts using transfer learning model image processing algorithm suitable recognit...

We consider a single inventory location where multiple types of repairable spare parts are kept to service several different fleets of assets. Demand for each part is modeled by a Markov modulated Poisson process (MMPP). Each fleet has a target for the maximum expected mean number of assets down for lack of a spare part. The inventory manager can meet this target by stocking repairables and by ...

In supply chain networks, the flow of material occurs between various business entities such as suppliers, manufactures, distributors and retailers, which can be considered as the various echelons (levels) in a multi-echelon supply chain network. Spare parts supply chain management deals with optimizing stocking, purchasing, repairing and disposing activities of purchased parts and their compon...

Spare parts inventories assist maintenance staff to keep equipment in operating condition. Thus the level of spares stocked has a direct bearing on machine availability. This paper presents an innovative risk based approach for spare parts inventory optimisation. Research presented here is in response to a real-life problem of developing a methodology for optimising the stocking of spare parts ...
