Abstract
Abstract This article extends the analysis of an earlier paper by the authors for a single product to lot size determination for manufacturing cycles of multiple products. The effects of production breaks, learning interactions due to commonality of tasks and different learning rates for products are considered in the formulation of an equation for the average production time per unit. The equation is applied to an equal lot size per product model. An analysis of a model restricted to equal production intervals per product per cycle is also presented. A sample problem is solved to demonstrate the application of the effects of learning to multiple product lot size determination.
