Abstract
To complete the product life cycle, one has to include an inverse flow from products to materials or parts. In the inverse manufacturing process, products are decomposed into several parts after the use phase. Some of these parts are re-used at the production stage and during the maintenance/up-grade process. In this paper, the evaluation system of decomposed parts’ quality is proposed in order to connect the output from the inverse process with the input to the forward manufacturing process. To represent the deteriorated status of used parts, geometrical quality description is introduced into the product model. Behavior-mechanism relation tables are used for connecting functional behavior of the product with corresponding deteriorating parts in the evaluation process. Final output from the evaluation process is geometrical deteriorated status of the geometric element of the parts. These data can be used at planning the stage for reusing parts in the forward flow of product life cycle.
