Optimal production run length and inspection schedules in a deteriorating production process

Abstract

This paper presents an economic manufacturing quantity model which determines an optimal production run length and inspection schedules simultaneously in a deteriorating production process. It is assumed that a production process is subject to a random deterioration from the in-control state to the out-of-control state and, thus, produces some proportion of defective items. An optimal production run length and an optimal number of inspections are derived, and unique properties of the proposed model are discussed. A numerical experiment is carried out to examine the behavior of the proposed model and compare the proposed model to an existing model.
