Economic production lot-sizing for an unreliable machine under imperfect age-based maintenance policy

This paper is concerned with the joint determination of both economic production quantity and preventive maintenance (PM) schedules under the realistic assumption that the production facility is subject to random failure and the maintenance is imperfect. The manufacturing system is assumed to deteriorate while in operation, with an increasing failure rate. The system undergoes PM either upon failure or after having reached a predetermined age, whichever of them occurs first. As is often the case in real manufacturing applications, maintenance activities are imperfect and unable to restore the system to its original healthy state. In this work, we propose a model that could be used to determine the optimal number of production runs and the sequence of PM schedules that minimizes the long-term average cost. Some useful properties of the cost function are developed to characterize the optimal policy. An algorithm is also proposed to find the optimal solutions to the problem at hand. Numerical results are provided to illustrate both the use of the algorithm in the study of the optimal cost function and the latter’s sensitivity to different changes in cost factors.

Contribution of simulation to the optimization of maintenance strategies for a randomly failing production system

This paper compares two strategies for operating a production system composed of two machines working in parallel and a downstream inventory supplying an assembly line. The two machines, which are prone to random failures, undergo preventive and corrective maintenance operations. These operations with a random duration make the machines unavailable. Moreover, during regular subcontracting operations, one of these machines becomes unavailable to supply the downstream inventory. In the first strategy it is assumed that the periodicity of preventive maintenance operations and the production rate of each machine are independent. The second strategy suggests an interaction between the periods of unavailability and the production rates of the two machines in order to minimize production losses during these periods. A simulation model for each strategy is developed so as to be able to compare them and to simultaneously determine the timing of preventive maintenance on each machine considering the total average cost per time unit as the performance criterion. The second strategy is then considered, and a multi-criteria analysis is adopted to reach the best cost-availability compromise.

Optimal economic production quantity policy for imperfect process with imperfect repair and maintenance

This study integrates maintenance and production programs with the economic production quantity (EPQ) model for an imperfect process involving a deteriorating production system with increasing hazard rate: imperfect repair and rework upon failure (out of control state). The imperfect repair performs some restorations and restores the system to an operating state (in-control state), but leaves its failure until perfect preventive maintenance (PM) is performed. There are two types of PM, namely imperfect PM and perfect PM. The probability that perfect PM is performed depends on the number of imperfect maintenance operations performed since the last renewal cycle. Mathematical formulas are obtained for deriving the expected total cost. For the EPQ model, the optimum run time, which minimizes the total cost, is discussed. Various special cases are considered, including the maintenance learning effect. Finally, a numerical example is presented to illustrate the effects of PM, setup, breakdown and holding costs.

Age-dependent production planning and maintenance strategies in unreliable manufacturing systems with lost sale

In this paper, we formulate an analytical model for the joint determination of an optimal age-dependent buffer inventory and preventive maintenance policy in a production environment that is subject to random machine breakdowns. Traditional preventive maintenance policies, such as age and periodic replacements, are usually studied based on simplified and non-realistic assumptions, as well as on the expected costs criterion. Finished goods inventories and the age-dependent likelihood of machine breakdowns are usually not considered. As a result, these policies could significantly extend beyond the anticipated financial incomes of the system, and lead to crises. In order to solve this problem, a more realistic analysis model is proposed in this paper to consider the effects of both preventive maintenance policies and machine age on optimal safety stock levels. Hence, a unified framework is developed, allowing production and preventive maintenance to be jointly considered. We use an age-dependent optimization model based on the minimization of an overall cost function, including inventory holdings, lost sales, preventive and corrective maintenance costs. We provide optimality conditions for the manufacturing systems considered, and use numerical methods to obtain an optimal preventive maintenance policy and the relevant age-dependent threshold level production policy. In this work, this policy is called the multiple threshold levels hedging point policy. We include numerical examples and sensitivity analyses to illustrate the importance and the effectiveness of the proposed methodology. Compared with other available optimal production and maintenance policies, the numerical solution obtained shows that the proposed age-dependent optimal production and maintenance policies significantly reduce the overall cost incurred.     

Optimal preventive maintenance policy for electric power distribution systems based on the fuzzy AHP methods

In power distribution systems, with their great vastness and various outage causes, one of the most important problems of power distribution companies is to select a suitable maintenance strategy of system elements and method of financial planning for the maintenance of system elements with the two objectives of decrease in outage costs and improvement of system reliability. In this article, a practical method is introduced for the selection of a suitable system elements maintenance strategy; moreover, to plan the preventive maintenance budget for the system elements, two methods are offered: the cost optimization method and the fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. In the former method, a new model of system maintenance cost is offered. This model, based on system outage information, the elements maintenance costs are determined as functions of system reliability indices and preventive maintenance budget. The latter method, too, a new guideline is introduced for considering the cost and reliability criteria in the trend of preventive maintenance budget planning. In this method, the preventive maintenance budget for the elements is determined based on relative priority of elements with reliability criteria. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The impact of inspection errors,imperfect maintenance and minimal repairs on an imperfect production system

This paper develops an integrated model of production lot-sizing, maintenance and quality for considering the possibilities of inspection errors, preventive maintenance (PM) errors and minimal repairs for an imperfect production system with increasing hazard rates. In this study, a PM activity is imperfect in that a production system cannot be recovered as good as new and might cause the production system to shift to the out-of-control state with a certain probability. Numerical analyses are used to simulate the effect of changes in various parameters on the optimal solution for which the time that the process remains in the in-control state is assumed to follow a Weibull distribution. In addition, we investigate the effects of inspection errors and PM errors on the minimum total cost of the optimal inspection interval, inspection frequency and production quantity.
