Abstract
The waste from electric and electronic
equipment and discarded automobiles in the past grew
rapidly and resulted with waste in billions of tones. The
aim of this paper is to present an improved nondestructive
disassembly process of electromechanical
products using augmented reality based devices, such
as glasses, tablets or mobile phones, and RFID
technology for valuable product/part tracking. The
proposed method includes tagging of components of
interest in the product assembly by using a RFID tag.
The valuable product is marked with specific ID
number written in the RFID tag, in order to declare
the product. The relevant data such as material and
weight of components, guidelines for non-destructive
disassembly for the valuable product and removing of
component of interest will be obtained with the
assistance of RFID tag and a centralized database. This
modular system offers guidelines for the nondestructive
disassembly process for obtaining valuable
component of interest intended for easy repairs,
remanufacture, reuse or recycling. The guidelines are
in video presentation format using augmented reality
for easy visualization of non-destructive disassembly
process. The benefits of proposed modular system includes biggest percentage of reuse of the valuable components, easy maintaining, improved material
recycling, environmental protection and greater total
return form end of life products.
