RECLAIM: RE-manufaCturing and Refurbishment LArge Industrial equipment

Information

About project

Con oltre 32 milioni di occupati e il 16% del PIL UE, l’industria è il principale motore di innovazione e crescita del nostro continente.

Ogni anno, l’obsolescenza dei macchinari causa perdite di valore e di produttività a danno di imprese e lavoratori. RECLAIM intende risolvere questo problema con soluzioni innovative circolari attraverso il remanufacturing di grandi macchinari industriali.

Objectives

Project Objectives

Promote new technologies to reuse large machinery, recombine obsolete components and implement predictive maintenance in a circular economy logic.

Reduce the ageing of machinery by improving its productivity.

Define a decision making method for the reuse and remanufacturing of robotic and electromechanical systems to be validated in 5 European industrial pilot cases

Results

Concrete actions

RECLAIM solutions aim to extend the life of machinery, while improving productivity and performance. The project will focus on leveraging digital analytics, Internet of Things (IoT) and circular economy strategies to improve predictive maintenance and upgrade existing machines responsibly and effectively.

RECLAIM will create a new decision support framework to assess the health of machinery and propose methods, tools or services for the appropriate life extension strategy.

The developed solutions will be demonstrated and refined in real industrial environments to evaluate the life cycle of industrial equipment (machines, production lines, robotic systems, etc.) and to implement recovery strategies.
