In manufacturing systems, setup time and production time play important parts which are reduced through human learning effect. Furthermore, defective products of the manufacturing lines are classified as imperfect (repairable) and scraps (non-repairable) products. To this end, purpose of this research is to determine the optimal run time for an Economic Production Quantity (EPQ) model with scrap, rework, setup time, and machine breakdown under learning effect assumption. Machine breakdown occurs after generating a specific quantity of defective items which follows by reworking process. In this study a percentage of defective products are considered as scrap and the rest of them are reworked, while times of production and setup are reduced by learning effect. The proposed problem is extended upon a production-inventory cost function. Next, convexity of the developed model is proved, and the optimal run time for the model is obtained. Finally, numerical example illustrates utility of the developed model. |
