Abstract

In this paper, we study the production and inventory control of a manufacturing system composed of an imperfect process. After a random period operating in the ‘in-control’ state, the manufacturing system switches to the ‘out-ofcontrol’ state and starts producing non-conforming items. The manufacturing system ‘in-control’ horizons have a general deterioration distribution. Restoration actions with random durations are thus planned to restore the manufacturing system to the ‘in-control’ state after a specific logistic period. Restoration durations have a general distribution. Despite of numerous works published about the production and inventory control, and based on the just in time concept, this paper deals with the dynamic control of manufacturing system production rates under a zero inventory policy. In this context, two production control policies were proposed: the first one entails to stop immediately the manufacturing activity when the system transits to the ‘out-of-control’ state, the second policy advocates continue producing until the beginning of the restoration activity. The objective of the paper is to determine the best control policy among the two proposed ones based on the assessment of the overall incurred cost including restoration, non-conforming items and shortage costs. Analytical models are proposed and the expressions of the overall incurred costs are derived for each control policy.
