What is it about?

Decision making for selection of remanufactured alternatives and remanufacturing portfolio alternatives in field of lathe remanufacturing are reviewed. Experience in field of lathe remanufacturing is exploited to remodeling of existence models to optimize a remanufactured lathe into CNC machine as a case study. Methodology can be concluded into:- 1- Literature survey to find two paths of: a- Faults and their statutes study. b- Remanufacturing portfolio study. 2- Literature re-presentation and modeling. 3- Literature results graphical modeling.

Why is it important?

Emerged technology aided conventional lathe into CNC lathe remanufacturing alternative exhibits good behavior of criteria toward optimization. While Advanced technology aided conventional lathe into CNC lathe remanufacturing alternative exhibits behavior to be of interesting ability to be a reservoir of developing potentials. Conventional technology aided conventional lathe remanufacturing alternative is of lower potentials to be developed into optimum solution.

Perspectives

Remanufacturing-upgrading of conventional lathe into CNC machine in its mechanical part, it is merely traditional remanufacturing process of conventional lathe. Developing potentials can include that gearbox can be eliminated due to use of motorized axis, feed rod and lead screws, in both forward and transvers directions, can be replaced with motorized ball screws. Also tool post can be replaced with automatic tool changer while dovetail guide ways and saddles can be reused. Comparative literature based analysis and experience based analysis for uncertainty reduction can substitute the leak of relevant data acquisition for decision-making in field of remanufacturing. Uncertainty reduction modeling can enable simplify certain difficulties, the calculation of some criteria and adopting of simplified analysis methods so that theoretic and practical gap can be directed towards certain actual conditions to reach the optimum solution.
