Study on the Uncertain Problem for Project-Based Remanufacturing Systems

Abstract

Remanufacturing is a new manufacturing mode in modern manufacturing environment. This paper had a survey on the uncertain problems in project-based remanufacturing system based on the analysis of the conception of project-based remanufacturing. On the basis, the uncertain problems in project-based remanufacturing systems, which including the uncertain factors, the description approaches for uncertain factors and the strategies to reduce the uncertain influence factors, was studied in detail based on the characteristic of project-based remanufacturing systems.

Optimization of Remanufacturing Production Scheduling Considering Uncertain Factors

“…Fig. 1 shows relevant uncertain factors, including uncertainties in recovery link, disassembly link, reprocessing link and assembly link [5][6][7][8]. Due to different manufacturing objects, different production processes, different production controls and different production schedules, the conventional shop scheduling scheme is not suitable for remanufacturing production processes [9,10].…”
