Analysis of maintenance policies supported by simulation in a flexible manufacturing cell

ABSTRACT The purpose of this article is to analyze three maintenance policies in a flexible manufacturing cell from a mechanical manufacturing company. The policies were opportunistic maintenance, in which all the machines are repaired whenever the cell stops, corrective maintenance, in which only t...
