Matrix Production In Remanufacturing: Potentials, Design And Challenges

Remanufacturing is a process in which used products are processed so that they reach or even exceed the condition and performance of new products. Various steps such as disassembly, cleaning, inspection, reconditioning, repair and reassembly are carried out to restore the original product functionality. A key challenge in remanufacturing is the increasing variety of products in different quality states, which requires a high degree of flexibility and adaptability in the remanufacturing processes. Due to its flexibility, efficient use of resources and rapid adaptability, matrix production enables a wide range of product variants and different product conditions to be processed optimally. This research analyzes the characteristics and elements of matrix production and remanufacturing and describes how matrix production impact on remanufacturing. The structural transformations required to transfer the flexibility and efficiency of matrix production to the complex process of remanufacturing are examined. Possible challenges and solutions for implementation are discussed and future research needs are identified.
