| Abstract: | The authors study a maker-packer production system in cigarette manufacturing where two different types of detectors are installed on the making and packing machines to maintain the product quality. The making machine detector has a continuously adjustable setting which determines the proportion of defective cigarettes removed. The packing machine detector has only discrete settings. The proposed maker-packer model is useful in other industries. |
