Abstract

Disassembly is one of the key steps in the efficient treatment of End-Of-Life products, however has generally been neglected in industry practice due to cost constraints. This is because disassembly has traditionally been restricted to manual labour. Automation assisting or substituting for human workers may be a lower-cost option. However, the associated technical challenges need to first be addressed. This chapter presents the principle of disassembly automation, as well as the basic elements needed in a disassembly system. A number of research works in regard to automated disassembly systems and innovative disassembly tools are also described.
