Remanufacturing Strategies for Second-Hand Systems

Description
Summary:ABSTRACT : Remanufacturing is the process of restoring used products to like-new condition by disassembly, cleaning, repairing, and replacing parts, and reassembly. Economically, remanufacturing can be profitable, but the industry, product type, and on the level of uncertainty in both the number of returned products and the quality of the returns heavily condition this. The condition and state of degradation of returned products affect the reliability and yield rates of the components recovered by disassembly from these products. Using recovered parts in the remanufacturing process also requires upgrading and reconditioning which can increase the cost of the remanufactured second-hand products. Moreover, remanufacturers tend to offer generous warranty coverage to attract consumers. The environmental and economic implications of all these planning, production, sales, and support decisions are high. This project aims to extend a mathematical model to support decision-making in the supply chain design for second-hand remanufactured products.
