A proper process planning can significantly improve a producer’s competitiveness in regard to delivering high-quality and low-cost products with short development-cycle time. Because of process shifting, the produced quality may change during a production run and lead to early product failures. Hence, to compensate for such process shifting, there is a need to determine the optimal resetting cycle before the next setup as well as the initial settings at the beginning of a production run. As the process tolerance is one of the key elements in the production process, determination of the process tolerance must also be considered. Due to the interdependence among decision variables, a model for process planning is proposed to simultaneously determine the initial setting, process tolerance, and resetting cycle, so that the average total cost, in a period of resetting cycle, which includes the setup cost, quality loss, failure cost and tolerance cost, is minimized under process-capability limits, functionality requirements, and conforming rate restrictions.
