 Lot sizing for a single product recovery system with variable setup numbersI. Konstantaras and K. Skouri European Journal of Operational Research, 2010, vol. 203, issue 2, 326-335 Abstract: Inventory systems for joint remanufacturing and manufacturing have recently received considerable attention. In such systems, used products are collected from customers and are kept at the recoverable inventory warehouse for future remanufacturing. In this paper a production-remanufacturing inventory system is considered, where the demand can be satisfied by production and remanufacturing. The cost structure consists of the EOQ-type setup costs, holding costs and shortage costs. The model with no shortage case in serviceable inventory is first studied. The serviceable inventory shortage case is discussed next. Both models are considered for the case of variable setup numbers of equal sized batches for production and remanufacturing processes. For these two models sufficient conditions for the optimal type of policy, referring to the parameters of the models, are proposed.
