Abstract

Nonconforming items and machine failures make the production system unreliable. In practice, quality control and maintenance technologies are introduced into the unreliable production systems to manage both the products and machines, where quality control technologies can be achieved by inspecting the quality characteristics of the products. However, some existing work ignored the variation in quality characteristics or the machine failure. Quality control can provide information for maintenance. Meanwhile, systems integration brings challenges for management. To solve these problems, considering that quality characteristics may vary and machines may fail, a profit model is proposed for modeling the relationship between profit and management policies. The goal is to maximize the production profit through the optimization of management policies via Genetic Algorithms (GA), which involve production planning, quality inspection, and maintenance policies. Finally, a case study is used to demonstrate the application of the proposed method, and the results demonstrate that our proposed method can generate higher profits compared to the traditional methods.
