Description

The ability of production equipment should be decided according to demand. It is supposed that production equipment has the upper limit of production quantity in a period and an adjustable range of production quantity without extra cost. The former is called "productive capacity" of production equipment, and the latter is called "flexibility of quantity" of production equipment. Generally, the higher the productive capacity and flexibility of quantity are, the more costly the maintenance and management of production equipment is. Then, for economically deciding the ability of production equipment depending on fluctuation in demand, one should consider both productive capacity and flexibility of quantity. In this paper, we present a distribution-free approach for deciding the ability of production equipment based on the min-max criterion using only expectation and variance for demand fluctuations
