Abstract

In a plant, the size of a maintenance staff initst be related to the level of output. The optimal level of maintenance is essential for maximizing the output of the production process. This paper develops a simulation model to determine the size of a maintenance crew. The heart of the simulation model is the machine servicing model. The model is applied to a local soft drink plant to deter mine the optimal number of their mainte nance crew, and the result of the study is presented.
