Adaptable Design Methodology of Heavy Duty Machine Tool for Green Remanufacturing

Abstract:

In order to achieve the remanufacturers and utility extension of the old heavy-duty machine tool, an adaptable design method of the heavy machine tool that oriented to the green remanufacturing is proposed in this paper. The guiding ideology of the adaptable design is integrated into the green design and product development. The present status of research at home and abroad is summarized, and then the existing problems are analyzed. Axiomatic design is introduced to be the research principal line and the four design domains are extended to five ones including regeneration domain. By full analysis, the three future research directions including the adaptable modular design, the adaptable platform design and the adaptable interface design of the heavy-duty machine tool, are proactively introduced.
