Industrial Challenges within the Remanufacturing System

چکیده
This paper is a literature review of challenges within the remanufacturing system. The challenges in the remanufacturing system has been categorised in a collection phase, a remanufacturing process phase and a redistribution phase which the challenges have been presented according to. The causes and effects of each challenge have been explored and are presented in this paper. The final result is a compilation figure with the challenges for the whole remanufacturing system. In general uncertainties and complexity can be seen as the main characteristics for the challenges within the remanufacturing system.

Quantitative models for determining prices in a remanufacturing system with exclusive and competitive market structure
Remanufacturing is an industrial process that makes used products reusable. Remanufacturing is a way to establish a closed-loop supply chain. One of the important aspects in both reverse logistics and remanufacturing is pricing of returned and remanufactured products (called cores) that it has been noticed in this paper. In addition, in this paper the researchers have tried to present a mathema...
متن کاملDetermination of Criticality Indexes in the Remanufacturing Process: A GERT-based Simulation Approach
In this paper one of the important “end of life options” (remanufacturing) has been analysed. Among the related studies surveyed the various remanufacturing aspects, less attention has been paid to the stochastic process routing. In this regard, a remanufacturing process routing with stochastic activities is modelled as a GERT network. One of the efficient ways to analyse a remanufacturing proc...
متن کاملRemanufacturing: Challenges and Opportunities to be Lean
The lean philosophy, which denotes business excellence through continuous improvement, originates from Japanese car manufacturer Toyota’s Production System (TPS). An area where lean is not fully explored is remanufacturing, a business that brings used products back to useful life. Remanufacturing is often a more complex process than manufacturing due to uncertainty of process steps/time and par...

متن کاملEnvironmental Issues within the Remanufacturing Industry
Researchers often regard remanufacturing as an environmentally beneficial end-of-life option. There have been, however, few environmental measurements performed in the area. The aim of this paper is to identify general environmental pros and cons with remanufacturing. This is done through the analysis of practical examples in remanufacturing industries. Life Cycle Assessment methodology has bee...
