“…The methods by Behdad et al (2009) andEl-Sayed et al (2012) use less complex transition matrices and mixed integer linear programming, or genetic algorithms (GAs) to remove selected parts one at a time, and therefore reduce computing time, compared with the methods by Gadh (1998, 1999), Srinivasan, Figueroa, and Gadh (1999), and Mascle and Balasoiu (2003). However, the methods can only be used to find single-target selective disassembly plans, and the methods also remove selected parts one at a time.…”

Disassembly sequence planning methods play an important role in green design. They are used to remove parts for repair, reuse, remanufacturing, or recycling. However, sequential disassembly removes parts one at a time. Therefore, sequential disassembly uses extra movements and extra reorientations to remove parts. Furthermore, the sequential disassembly cannot be used to remove parts that are interlocked or occluded. As a result, sequential disassembly cannot be used for many types of designs. The goal of this study is to create a novel selective parallel disassembly planning method for green design. The method uses modular design theory to group parts into modules, uses recursive rules to remove selected modules, thereby removes parts in parallel, and therefore reduces the number of movements and reorientations needed to remove parts. Furthermore, selective parallel disassembly can be used to remove parts that are interlocked or occluded. As a result, the method can be used for most types of designs. Study results show that the method can be used to reduce disassembly steps, disassembly time, and energy use, and therefore reduce environmental impacts and increase environmental quality.

“…Furthermore, half of the records in this study work on the basis of known parts only, therefore concerning sequence‐ and path‐planning methods. In total, 64 papers directly target the topic of sequence planning, albeit only nine of them leave the area of basic research, including practical examples of robotic implementation, e.g., ElSayed et al and Friedrich et al . Moreover, 14 papers (8 %) involve an automation approach without necessary a priori knowledge.…”

To successfully implement circular economy processes into present value chains, economic feasibility of disassembly processes is essential. Current developments in science and technology, such as artificial intelligence and Internet of Things, foster steep progression in the field of robotics. In this review, the current research on robotics in disassembly is investigated by a systematic literature review. The results were clustered in a framework system distinguishing between applied and basic research on the two main streams of disassembly automation research, namely, predefined processes and adaptable, flexible automation.

“…Disassembly is an important issue within the area of product recovery. Researchers have studied various aspects of disassembly including sequencing [4,5], scheduling [6,7,8], disassembly line [9,10], disassembly line balancing [11,12], disassembly to order systems [13,14], and automated disassembly [15,16]. The interested reader is referred to recent books by Lambert and Gupta [17] and McGovern and Gupta [18] for further information on different aspects of disassembly.…”

Your This paper investigates the effect on the performance of two production control mechanisms, viz. push and pull, on a disassembly line where interruptions are caused by preventive maintenance. In the push system, blocking and starvation are compensated by the large amount of inventories stored in the buffers. Thus, the system must disassemble components prior to the arrival of actual demand. Alternatively, the multi-kanban pull system offsets the blocking and starvation by manipulating the kanban routing. Hence, it directs kanban to the proper workstation based on system's current status. Compared to the push system, the pull system tends to keep smaller amounts of inventories while attempting to service the actual demand. Through a case example, we present advantages and disadvantages of both systems.
