This study studies the effects of machine breakdown, backlog and rework on the replenishment lot
size. In real-life manufacturing systems, random defective rate and breakdown of equipment are inevitable.
When backlogging is permitted during a production run, a random machine failure may take place either in
backlog filling stage or in inventory piling time; this study focuses on the former situation and considers all
defective items produced are repairable through a rework process. The objective of this study is to determine
the optimal run time that minimizes the long-run average production-inventory costs. The result can be directly
applied to the practical production planning and control field to assist practitioner in production management
cost reduction.
Key words: Backlog , equipment failure, production, repair, replenishment lot size, ,
