DISASSEMBLABILITY AND REASSEMBLABILITY PARAMETERS ANALYSIS: AUTOMOBILE MAINTENANCE CONTEXT STUDY

The purpose of this paper is to study the disassembly and reassembly criteria and parameters in the maintenance activities context although such initiative has been tabled for other purposes like recycling, remanufacturing, etc. Measuring Dis/re-assembly activities is a complex task due to the various variant disassembly metrics and contexts. Time spent for dis /re-assembly faulty component should be well-deducted and standardized based on appropriate selected disassembly parameters. So, we present a methodology for modeling and selecting the appropriate maintenance dis/re-assembly metrics. The frequent observation in the literature relate work and a survey analysis during dis/re-assembly activities have been fit together in order to deduct the adequate dis/re-assembly metrics.Based on relate topic literature analysis and our own experimentation carry out in different organizations, through statistical methodology outlines here, a relevant dis/re-assembly metric model has been cleared.According to the well-characterized context, this model will contribute as root of evaluating the maintenance task such as disassembly and reassembly for better maintenance services. The paper rounds off with conclusions and an agenda for future research in this area.
