“…Two comprehensive reviews of this literature can be found in Raz (2007) and Penn and Raviv (2007). In addition, the relationship of quality with time, cost, and flexibility in manufacturing systems is discussed by Chryssolouris (2006) and economic optimisation of off-line product inspection is investigated by Raz et al (2000), Wang et al (2009), andBendavid andHerer (2009).…”

This paper is devoted to serial production lines consisting of producing and inspection machines that obey the Bernoulli reliability and Bernoulli quality models. Such production lines are encountered in automotive assembly and painting operations where the downtime is relatively short and the defects are due to uncorrelated random events. For these systems, this paper develops analytical methods for performance analysis, bottleneck identification, and design. In addition, insights into the nature of bottlenecks in such systems are provided, and an empirical rule for placing an inspection machine that maximises the production rate of non-defectives is formulated.

“…Raz, et al [15] developed the first ID policy to minimize the cost function by solving the problem of economic optimization. After that their ID policy was extensively studied by other researchers with the consideration of different assumptions [16][17][18][19][20][21].…”

With advanced manufacturing technology, organizations like to cut their operational cost and improve product quality, yet the importance of human labor is still alive in some manufacturing industries. The performance of human-based systems depends much on the skill of labor that varies person to person within available manpower. Much work has been done on human resource and management, however, allocation of manpower based on their skill yet not investigated. For this purpose, this study considered offline inspection system where inspection is performed by the human labor of varying skill levels. A multi-objective optimization model is proposed based on Time-Varying factors; inspection skill, operation time and learning behavior. Min-max goal programming technique was used to determine the efficient combination of inspectors of each skill level at different time intervals of a running order. The optimized results ensured the achievement of all objectives of inspection station: the cost associated with inspectors, outgoing quality and inspected quantity. The obtained results proved that inspection performance of inspectors improves significantly with learning and revision of allocation of inspectors with the proposed model ensure better utilization of available manpower, maintain good quality and reduce cost as well.

“…Previous research work with offline inspection policy of products was extended by Wang and Meng (2009). Bendavid and Herer (2009) introduced an optimal policy that obtains the number of units to inspect and the number of disposal units to minimize the expected cost. Hassan and Diab (2010) incorporated a visual inspection approach that can be used on line to test simultaneously multiple qualities characteristics.…”
