Abstract:

Remanufacturing is an ideal form of recycling because it recaptures some of the costs of labor, energy, and manufacturing in addition to the cost of materials. However, Current products that present some characteristic, such as small batch, individuation, multispecies and timeliness, bring some challenge to traditional remanufacturing production. Develop flexible remanufacturing system is an important methods and approaches to adapt the development of remanufacturing. This paper describes the definition of flexible remanufacturing characteristics, discusses the remanufacturing system, analyzed the remanufacturing system modules and the key technology, and gives a preliminary application case.

I. Introduction

Remanufacture is the process of bringing a nonfunctioning complex assembly to “like–new” functional state by replacing and rebuilding its component parts. Moreover, remanufacturing is an ultimate form of recycling because it recaptures the value which added into the product by manufacturing it. However, Remanufacturing take the used product as “core” for production, in last few years, the trend of small batch, multispecies, timeliness and individuations production has made the traditional remanufacturing industry facing serious challenge. Through developing the flexible remanufacturing system, it could adapt the change of production, and deal with the enormous changes manufacturing. This paper gives some discussion on flexible remanufacturing system.
