Remanufacturing of Electric Motors
Challenges
- Lack of current remanufacturing process.
- Minimizing component damage during disassembly.
- Complex supply chains for remanufactured parts.
Remanufacturing Business Model
- The electric motor remanufacturing business model offers a take-back program for end-of-life motors from automotive manufacturers. Advanced testing identifies reusable components, which can be remanufactured and reused at a lower cost and environmental impact, while providing valuable insight for designing motors with an extended lifespan.
RENÉE Technology Advancements
- Implementation of a human-robot collaborative cell for assisted disassembly.
- AI tools for product diagnosis and identification of reusable components, reducing waste and environmental impact.
Impact
Increase the number of remanufactured motors per year.
Reduce waste and environmental impact of motor production.
Improve the overall cost-effectiveness of the remanufacturing process.
