REMANUFACTURING

THE CONCEPT

Remanufacturing is an industrial processwhereby used/broken‐down products (orcomponents) – referred to as ‘‘cores’’ – arerestored to useful life. Remanufacturingmeans that a product is reprocessed orupgraded in an industrial process (Ostlin, etal., 2009).

THE DEFINITIONREMANUFACTURING

• An industrial process that transforms end of life (EOL) product into aproduct with as good as new condition (Matsumoto, 2009; Seitz, 2007).

• The process of bringing a used product to like‐new condition throughreplacing and rebuilding component parts (Haynsworth and Lyons, 1987)

• Remanufacturing is the process of restoring a non‐functional, discarded,or trade‐in products (cores) to like‐new performance (Lund and Hauser,2008)

• Remanufacturing is a process of bringing used products to like‐newfunctional state with warranty to match (Ijomah, et al., 1998)

REMANUFACTURINGPRODUCT PROFILE

• Look‐like new; Same condition as brand new product OEM product

• Same technical performance with comparable brand new OEM product (could be more due to upgrading)

• Same warranty period as given to a comparable brand new OEM product

• Same expected life‐span as brand new/OEM product

• Lower in Price (45% ‐65% of the price of comparable new OEM product)

At least same performance as a comparable brand new OEM product

Same lifespan with a comparable brand new OEM product (subject to maintenance)

Have warranty (could be a same period and coverage as given to comparable brand new OEM product)

40%‐65% lower than a price of comparable brand new OEM product

RepairingRepairing Correction of specified faults

RefurbishingRefurbishing A used product, cleaned up, tested, repackaged and made available for re‐sale

ReconditioningReconditioning A used product that is cleaned up and tested extensively with possible repair, re‐sale at a satisfactory working condition

RemanufacturingRemanufacturing Returning a used product to a least OEM original performance specification

REMANUFACTURINGRECONDITIONINGREPAIRING

• Remanufacturing: The process of returning a used product to at leastOEM original performance specification from customers’ perspective andgiving the resultant product a warranty that is at least equal to that of anew manufactured equivalent.

• Reconditioning: The process of returning a used product to a satisfactoryworking condition that may be inferior to the original specification.Generally, the resultant product has a warranty that is less than that of anewly manufactured equivalent. The warranty applies to all majorwearing parts.

• Repairing: Repairing is simply the correction of specified faults in aproduct. When repaired products have warranties, they are less thanthose of newly manufactured equivalents. Also, the warranty may notcover whole product but only the component that has been replaced.

Company Definition

United States International Trade Commission (USITC)

Comprises of parts that have been obtained from the disassembly of used goods; and havebeen processed, cleaned, inspected, and tested to the extent necessary to ensure they havebeen restored to original working condition or better; and for which the remanufacturerhas issued a warranty.

Cummins (Korea) Engine core processing with component remanufacturing for use in local rebuild (e.g.typically blocks, cranks, cams, rods, and miscellaneous parts)

Yuchai (China) Remanufacturing engineering is to develop a progress to return used core to newcondition. Some engineering specification should be changed on remanufacturing print.Validation will only be necessary to be applied to those changed specification.

Solar Turbines (US) The process of returning to end of life to its original condition, same as new condition orbetter manufacturing environment in accordance to engineering specification,performance validation testing, manufacturing quality systems and OEM’s warranty.

Komatsu (Japan) Quality and performance guaranteed to be the same level as those for new components,lower cost for remanufacturing components, reduced idle time for machines throughsufficient inventory.
