In order to increase competitiveness and to gain economic benefit, companies ask more and more how to recycle their products in a efficient way. So far, to answer this question, companies are not sufficiently supported by suitable methods specially in the area of disassembly process planning. For this reason, we develop in collaboration with an industrial partner a new method for generating an optimal disassembly sequence. In the presented paper this method will be described in detail by considering the exiting assembly information, disassembly method and disassembly depth. PLM (Profit-Loss Margin) curve that is used to determine disassembly depth consists of profit value, disassembly cost and disassembly effect. Using assessment parameters, generated alternative disassembly sequences are evaluated and optimal disassembly sequence is proposed. This method is applied to generate the optimal disassembly sequence of Door Trim as an example.

The paper describes disassemblability evaluation method using axiomatic approach. In recent industry, it is necessary to develope high recyclable environmental product due to green consumer and environmental regulations. Disassembly stage is prior to recycling. Disaassembly time data is determined previously in order to calculate the disassembly segments and disassembly sequence. In this paper the evaluation method of disassembly segment/sequence and disassembly time database are suggested. A case study of monitor product was showed.

In this paper, same parts of a domestic automobiles and foreign automobiles are disassembled fur the evaluation of disassemblability, especially door trim and bumper. Influencing factors of disassembly are determined by the classification of bottleneck process in disassembly process. On the bases of disassembly sequence and structure of parts and subassembly, disassemblability is classified into aye categories. The influencing factors, which are related with the five categories are determined. By these relations, the checklist for disassembly evaluation is draw up and score tables of checked factors are established. For the establishing the disassembly score tables, the weighting values of each five categories are calculated by the disassembly test of automobiles and then, the weighting values of each influencing factors of five categories are calculated by the method of AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process). And the last, the weighting values are modified and recalculated from the disassembly test. Using these weighting values, the score of influencing factors are determined and then, the score tables are established based on the score of influencing factors.

Many industrial products can be assembled in various sequences of assembly operations. To save time and cost in assembly process and to increase the quality of products, it is very important to choose an optimal assembly sequence. In this paper, we propose a methodology that generates an optimal assembly sequence by using the knowledge of experts. First, a product is divided into several sub-assemblies. Next, the disassembly sequences of sub-assembly are generated using disassembly rules and special information can be extracted through the disassembly process. By combining every assembly sequence of sub-assemblies, we can generate all the possible assembly sequences of a product. Finally, the expert system evaluates all the possible assembly sequences and finds an optimal assembly sequence. It can be achieved under consideration of the parameters such as assembly operation, tool change, safety of part. basepart location, setup change, distance, and orientation. The developed system is applied to UBR(Unit Bath Room) example.

De-manufacturing is an entire process of collecting, disassembling, reusing, refurbishing, recycling, and/or disposing products that are obsolete or un-repairable. Designing the products for inexpensive and efficient disassembly enhances the ease of de-manufacturing. Virtual disassembly addresses the difficulty and the methods to disassemble a product in design stage rather than really disassemble a product at the end of its life cycle. Based on the virtual disassembly analysis results, design will be improved for better assembling/disassembling. This paper presents a systematic virtual disassembly methodology such as disassembly relation modeling, path/sequence automatic generation and evaluation. This paper also presents a new virtual disassembly interface paradigm via virtual reality technology for disassembly simulation in virtual environment.

To save time and cost in assembly process and to improve th quality of products, it is very important to choose and optimal assembly sequence. In this paper, we propose a methodology that generates an optimal assembly sequence by using various methods and the knowledge of experts. To illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology, a knowledge-based system is developed, The built system is applied to the case of UBR(Unit Bath Room). The applying result showed the applicability of the developed system.
