Optimal Servicing Strategy Involving Imperfect Repair and Preventive Maintenance for Products Sold with One-Dimensional Warranties

ABSTRACT
A manufacturer tends to offer a longer warranty period ranging from 3 to 7 years in order to getits product more competitve in a market place. Offering a product with a longer warranty periodwould increase the warranty cost and this is of great interest to the manufaturer to reduce it. Fora repairable product, an effective servicing strategy which combines minimal repair and imperfectrepair can reduce the warranty cost significantly. But this servicing strategy confines the numberof imperfect repairs, at most one, over the warranty period. For a longer warranty period, moreimperfect repairs would be needed in order to reduce the number of failures over the warrantyperiod. In this paper we study two new servicing strategies where performing of imperfect repairsis dependent on the age of failureunder warranty. A numerical example is given to illustrate theoptimal solution and compare results of the strategies developed with the similar servicingstrategy studied previously.
