Abstract

The continuous progress in manufacturing techniques and the increasing ecological consciousness have led to a constant refinement in natural resources exploitation. In particular, the advisability of a longer and more reliable life cycle of products and the reintroduction of mere materials in the production cycle have created new research fields in maintenance, remanufacturing and recycling, respectively. All these subjects have a common need: the complete or partial disassembly of the product in order to obtain more efficient and profitable results. The aim of this paper is therefore to analyse the state of the art of the research in disassembly techniques applied in these fields, emphasising the problems to be solved and the perspectives in the next years.
