“…He et al [2] emphasised the development of an algorithm to identify the failure features, which integrates point-cloud generation, ne registration and Boolean calculation where the tool path is generated automatically based on the identi ed features. A study by Mok et al [15] highlighted the determination on the cause of failure in remanufacturing through an algorithm designed for the targeted product. The algorithm will deduce the most serious failure causes, which were applied to each failure type.…”

The inclusion of additive manufacturing (AM) as an automated repair method leads to a sustainable remanufacturing process, which is known as additive repair. Despite its potential in improving the e ciency of repair and restoration, additive repair remains in its infancy and requires a thorough investigation on part design and process parameters. The major concern raised in additive repair is the capability to create perfect bonding between two metals, which will affect the mechanical properties of the complete repaired part. Hence, performing evaluation from the beginning is crucial to validate the feasibility of the process through appropriate structural analysis and to obtain deformation and stress results. Brake caliper housing is selected as a remanufacturable component for case exemplary purposes. Prior to analysis, the potential damages and failures of the brake caliper component were initially evaluated through literature surveys and direct interviews with industry experts where two types of damages were identi ed, namely, cracks and broken or fractured parts. Then, the validation focuses on comparative analysis of three different conditions of the brake caliper housing: original, damaged and repaired caliper model using nite element analysis in ANSYS. Results indicate that the strength of the repaired caliper model shows equal and higher strength compared with the original model. This result con rms that the repair process through AM can retain or improve the quality of the remanufactured brake caliper housing. Therefore, this paper provides a systematic framework for the evaluation of mechanical properties in multi-metal additive repair with the integration of failure analysis techniques.

“…The failure characteristics of a part could directly represent its own performance. Currently, most of studies on failure analysis for remanufacturing are relevant to decision making [17], remanufacturing design improvement [18], and reliability analysis [19]; only a few studies center on remanufacturability assessment. Wang et al [20] integrated fatigue life into the existing remanufacturability evaluation system, which may directly reflect the remanufacturability of product itself.…”

Association Rule Mining-Based Generalized Growth Mode Selection: Maximizing the Value of Retired Mechanical Parts

et al. 2023

Due to the inability to restore the original performance, a significant portion of retired mechanical products is often replaced with new ones and discarded or recycled as low-value materials. This practice leads to energy waste and a decline in their residual value. The generalized growth remanufacturing model (GGRM) presents opportunities to enhance the residual value of retired products and parts. It achieves this by incorporating a broader range of growth modes compared to traditional restorative remanufacturing approaches. The selection of the growth mode is a crucial step to achieve GGRM. However, there is a limited number of growth mode selection methods that are specifically suitable for GGRM. The capacity and efficiency of the method are also significant factors to consider. Therefore, we propose a growth mode selection method based on association rule mining. This method consists of three main steps: Firstly, the ReliefF method is used to select the core failure characteristics of retired parts. Secondly, a genetic algorithm (GA) is employed to identify the association between core failure characteristics, repair technology, and maximum recoverability. Finally, based on the maximum recoverability, the appropriate growth mode is selected for each retired part. We conduct a case study on retired automobile universal transmission, and the results demonstrate the feasibility, efficiency, and accuracy of the proposed method.

“…Remanufacturing is defined as the rebuilding of a product that is according to the specifications of the original manufactured product by using a combination of reused, repaired and new parts, where a remanufactured product should at least matches the same performance as the new machines [3], [4]. According to Shabanpour et al [5], the remanufacturing process chain begins with disassembly, which is then followed by the cleaning and inspection processes and ends with the reconditioning and reassembly stages that restore the functionality of the products.…”

Remanufacturing has now become one of the effective strategies for reducing the negative impact on the environment by prolonging the products' life cycle in the automotive sector. Still considered as a relatively new industry in Malaysia, the low remanufacturing rate coupled with the lack of standardization are thus seen as causing a high inclination of disruption occurrences in the remanufacturing operations. As such, this paper had identified and investigated the existing disruptions in four problematic areas, namely the production planning, infrastructure facilities, distribution networking and inventory management of the automotive remanufacturing firms in Malaysia. From the SPSS analysis and calculation of the mean and standard deviation values on the semi-structured interviews that were conducted in three remanufacturing companies, the highest contributor to the disruption risks was found to have resulted from the difficulty in obtaining the spare parts components in the production planning process. By also exploring the awareness level on environmental sustainability and the significance of remanufacturing processes among the remanufacturer companies, this analysis is thus deemed useful for not only identifying suitable actions that can be taken for mitigating the various risks faced by the automotive remanufacturers in Malaysia, but also in solving the disruptions of the remanufacturing supply chain system.
