Abstract

A computer-based tool for simulating demanufacturing facilities from a systems perspective has been developed and validated using data from a small electronics demanufacturer. An activity-based cost model has been integrated into the simulation to examine the full operational and economic trade-offs associated with a demanufacturing business. Various improvement scenarios can be modeled and simulated to evaluate bottomline results from proposed changes in operations, resource utilization, equipment selection, and facility layout.
