“…Cores are an essential part of the remanufacturing process as they are considered to be the raw material. Core acquisition management is the activity of obtaining the right cores in terms of quality and amount in a timely manner [24]. According to Gaur et al [25], core acquisition is one of the most important parts of the closed-loop supply chain because all other activities depend on it.…”

HeavyEq is an Indonesian company that remanufactures diesel engines for the mining industry. The company experiences delays in the remanufacturing process that lead to a sales backlog. The main purpose of this paper is to identify the root cause of, and propose a solution to, the problem. A fishbone diagram is developed to identify the root cause, and the results show that delays in the remanufacturing process are mainly caused by uncertainty over cores (used engines) in terms of their arrival time, quantity, and quality. Based on a literature review and interviews with experts, an improvement in core acquisition activity, separating job orders for disassembly and recovery, and reassembly processes is proposed to reduce delays in the remanufacturing process.

“…It has attracted considerable attention from researchers due to its benefits. Previous studies have covered remanufacturing logistics network, closed-loop supply chain coordination based on remanufacturing, joint manufacturing/remanufacturing decision-making, pricing of remanufactured products, and acquisition of waste products [9]. Among these issues, manufacturing/ remanufacturing is a critical factor influencing manufacturers' decision-making.…”

Original scientific paperIn an underdeveloped remanufacturing system, poor infrastructure and low technical level impede further development of remanufacturing. To overcome this obstacle, a huge amount of fixed investment is required to improve the remanufacturing system. However, this investment inevitably influences the manufacturer's manufacturing/remanufacturing decision-making economically. The relationship between fixed investment and recycling ratio was investigated, and the two-and multi-period manufacturing/remanufacturing mixed optimization models were developed. Based on the Karush-KuhnTucker (KKT) conditions, the optimal manufacturing/remanufacturing and fixed investment policies were obtained in closed-form expressions. Moreover, the influences of the fixed investment were analysed. Results show that the optimal policies are significantly influenced by the degree of underdevelopment of the remanufacturing system. When the remanufacturing system is underdeveloped, the manufacturer shows a lack of enthusiasm in remanufacturing, thereby resulting in the decrease of the investment and the recycling ratio. The manufacturer raises the sale price to alleviate the loss caused by fixed investment, but the total manufacturing quantity and profit decrease. In the multi-period case, the manufacturer gradually increases the investment for continuously improving the remanufacturing system to increase the recycling ratio and obtain additional profits from remanufacturing. The proposed models can effectively provide the reference for determining the reasonable manufacturing/remanufacturing and fixed investment policies in the underdeveloped remanufacturing system.

Za otklanjanje ove prepreke i unapređenje sustava preradbe potrebna su velika fiksna ulaganja. Ta ulaganja nedvojbeno utječu na proizvođača i ekonomičnost u donošenju odluke o proizvodnji /preradbi. Analizirao se odnos između omjera fiksnog ulaganja i preradbe te su razvijeni modeli optimizacije s dva i više perioda proizvodnje/preradbe. Na temelju Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) uvjeta, dobivene su smjernice za optimalnu proizvodnju/preradbu i fiksno ulaganje. Uz to, analizirani su učinci fiksnog ulaganja. Rezultati pokazuju da na optimalne odluke značajno utječe stupanj nerazvijenosti sustava preradbe. Kad je sustav preradbe nedovoljno razvijen, proizvođač pokazuje manjak entuzijazma za prerađivanje, a to dovodi do smanjenja ulaganja i omjera preradbe. Proizvođač podiže prodajnu cijenu kako bi ublažio gubitak izazvan fiksnim ulaganjem, ali ukupna proizvodnja i profit opadaju. U slučaju multi-perioda, proizvođač postepeno povećava ulaganje u trajno poboljšanje sustava preradbe kako bi se povećao omjer recikliranja i dobila dodatna z...

This article examines the problem of uncertain quantities and quality conditions of used-products obtained from the customer-stream, third-party-stream & mixed-stream on remanufacturing cycle-time under three different remanufacturing resources policies. Simulation technique is used to model a remanufacturing system with uncertain quantities and quality conditions of used-products obtained from the customer-stream, third-party-stream and mixed-stream under three different remanufacturing resource policies. Findings show that the quantities of used-products either from the customer-stream or third-party-stream affect the remanufacturing cycle-time. For used-products form the mixed-stream, the percentage of used-products from the customer-stream greatly affects the remanufacturing cycle-time.The different remanufacturing resource policies also affect the remanufacturing cycle-time. It can be established and concluded that the performance of a remanufacturing system is affected by the uncertain quantities and quality conditions of used-products.
