مقایسه استراتژی های تولید و میزان تعویق در هنگام ترکیب مواد افزودنی به زنجیره های عرضه محصول

The study offered in the present paper compares different possible production strategies for a product (via conventional technologies and Additive Manufacturing) and assesses the degree of postponement that it would be recommended in order to meet a certain demand distribution. The problem solving is calculated by a program containing a stochastic mathematical model which incorporates extensive information on costs and lead times for the required manufacturing operations.
