A review of current research on disassembly sequence generation and computer aided design for disassembly

For many reasons, environmental consciousness is increasingly becoming a major concern for manufacturers. It is widely acknowledged that the most ecological way to treat worn-out products is by recycling, for which disassembly is critically important. This paper presents a review of recent research on the development of disassembly, focussing on disassemblability, disassembly sequence generation and computer aided design for disassembly. A total of 84 papers are surveyed, and conclusions are drawn as to further directions for research.
