This paper deals with the stochastic analysis of a Milkopack machine subject to shut-off rules, which is governed by a main system having two units in standby configuration. Milkopack machine is operated with the help of a complex switch. The failure time distributions of the units are taken to be negative exponential whereas repair time distributions are taken to be arbitrary. Using regeneration point technique, several system parameters are evaluated. At last some graphs are plotted to highlight the important results.
