Nowadays, modern production patterns, such as batch production, have brought new challenges for multi-unit maintenance … decision-making. The maintenance scheduling should not only consider individual machine deterioration, but also apply to batch … production with variable lot size. An interactive bi-level maintenance strategy is thus proposed in a multi-unit batch production …
