Development of Environmental-friendly Technology for Production and Operation System of Industrial Machines : 5^<th> Report, Disassembly Analysis of Industrial Machines and Development of Environmental-friendly Pump

Abstract

In recent years, to construct the Sustainable Society, the importance of consideration in the design and the manufacturing phase to 3R (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) increases in various Industrial products. Especially, concerning Reuse and Recycle, the improvement of the disassembly property of the products is an indispensable matter. Industrial machines are essential products for the manufacturing site such as factories. However, Industrial machines are late products on 3R consideration at the total Life Cycle Stage. In this research, we target the pump, the fan, and the compressor in Industrial machines. We disassembled them, and evaluated by using Disassembly Property Index, our own assessment method. As a result, it turned out industrial machines that the assignment of connection disassembly process was high. Based on the assessment, we proposed the design for disassembly on the General-purpose pump, and the Environment-friendly pump was developed.
