Abstract
This paper presents a non-renewable basic one-dimensional combination warranty policy analysis for an Advanced Remanufacturing-To-Order system for Sensor-embedded products (SEPs). The goal of the proposed approach is to determine how to predict a non-renewing one-dimensional Free Replacement and ProRata combination warranty period for the disassembled components and remanufactured products using the sensor information about the age of every end-of-life (EOL) retrieve products on hand to meet remanufactured product and component demands while minimizing the cost associated with warranty and maximizing manufacturers pro?t. Different simulation scenarios are explained and a case example is presented for illustration of the model applicability.
