Sažetak
With increasing awareness of potentially harmful life-cycle environmental
impacts, preserving natural resources, government regulations against
disposal of toxic substances in landfills, and the consequent development
of markets for recycled components and materials, more options are now
available for the disposal of post-use electronic equipment (e.g. personal
computers, computer monitors etc.). Disassembly is the first stage in the
WEEE recycling process. Manual disassembly has proven to be the most
efficient method. Automated systems find their implementation only when
relatively uniform-type equipment or assemblies are disassembled. Layout
changes can enhance disassembly speeds by efficient material movement.
This paper presents a proposal of disassembly line layout configuration
which has been designed for disassembly of electronic equipment, typically
found in residential waste stream, commonly referred to as consumer
electronics. This paper introduces also a new concept as a possible solution
for the known problems in existing layouts that occur during disassembly
process such as disassembly speed, lifting, contamination risk, cluttering
of tools and overloading of the sorting operator.
