The machine in any production environment is subject to failure. Although the frequency of failures can be managed through preventive maintenance activities, it is impossible to get out of failures entirely. Firms need to carry spare parts inventory to cope with failure and ensure smooth operations through preventive maintenance. In other words, preventive maintenance and uncertain failures can be considered as the major reasons of spare part inventory. Therefore, planning preventive maintenance activities and managing spare part inventory should be handled together. In this study, we present a Dynamic Programming formulation of the joint problem of the preventive maintenance and spare parts inventory planning. The aim is to minimize the total expected cost over a finite planning horizon. Since the Dynamic Programming formulation is computationally intractable for long planning horizons and a system with a large number of machines, three heuristic approaches are proposed: (i) Myopic approach, (ii) Stationary policy and (iii) Steady-State approximation. Through computational analyses, effects of problem parameters on the performances of the proposed heuristics are investigated.

A Joint Policy for Preventive Maintenance and Spare Part Inventory Control
Kaya, Tuna Berk; Bayındır, Zeynep Pelin; Bakal, İsmail Serdar; Department of Industrial Engineering (2021-8)
Machine failures are the primary cause of production disruption in manufacturing systems, leading to significant profit loss. Preventive maintenance activities can adjust the frequency of failures to a certain point. Both failure and preventive maintenance activities are conducted by using spare parts. It is reasonable to stock spare parts in the inventory since procurement lead times of spare parts are common, and economies of scale are available. Maintenance and inventory control are usually planned by di...
Integrating knowledge with suppliers at the R D manufacturing interface
ROSELL, DAVID T; LAKEMOND, NICOLETTE; Wasti Pamuksuz, Syeda Nazlı (Emerald, 2014-02-01)
Purpose - Many manufacturing firms source components and subsystems from suppliers. Consequently, the suppliers' product and manufacturing knowledge is a central concern at the interface between R&D and manufacturing. This paper aims to specifically investigate how supplier knowledge is integrated and what role trust plays in knowledge integration with suppliers at the R&D-manufacturing interface. Design/methodology/approach - The study is based on qualitative case studies of two different collaborations w...
Representing component variability in configuration management
Bayraktar, Gamze; Oğuztüzün, Mehmet Halit S.; Doğru, Ali Hikmet; Department of Computer Engineering (2012)
Reusability of assets within a family of products is the major goal of Software Product Line Engineering (SPLE), therefore managing variability is an important task in SPLs. Configuration management in the context of software product line engineering is more complicated than that in single systems engineering due to ”variability in space” in addition to ”variability in time” of core assets. In this study, a method for documenting variability in executable configuration items, namely components, is proposed ...
Reconfigurability of behavioural specifications for manufacturing systems
Schmidt, Klaus Verner (Informa UK Limited, 2017-01-01)
Reconfigurable manufacturing systems (RMS) support flexibility in the product variety and the configuration of the manufacturing system itself in order to enable quick adjustments to new products and production requirements. As a consequence, an essential feature of RMS is their ability to rapidly modify the control strategy during run-time. In this paper, the particular problem of changing the specified operation of a RMS, whose logical behaviour is modelled as a finite state automaton, is addressed. The n...
Computation of supervisors for reconfigurable machine tools
Schmidt, Klaus Verner (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2015-06-01)
The rapid reconfiguration of manufacturing systems is an important issue in today's manufacturing technology in order to adjust the production to varying product demands and types. In this paper, we study the control of reconfigurable machine tools (RMTs) with the aim of fast reconfiguration and an easy controller implementation. We first formulate a particular reconfiguration problem for RMTs in a discrete event system setting, and then provide a necessary and sufficient condition for its solution. Moreove...
