Abstract

Recently the environmental regulations require automobile makers not only to set up the open loop resource recycling system by promoting the material recycling and remanufacturing in disposal phase, but also to apply Eco-design to their products in design phase. Hyundai Motor Group applies DfD(Design for Disassembly) and DfR(Design for Recycling) from conceptual design stage to production stage with the aspect of concurrent engineering. Eco-design guideline helps engineering designers to understand the necessity of Eco-design. The recyclability check sheets that include detailed design ideas classified by the polymer parts enable each designer to verify the product design by oneself. Furthermore, virtual recyclability inspection is performed in the digital product inspection stage which handles the virtual 3D modeling of products. All these activities became the official procedure in product development process. The DOROSY(Design for Recycling Optimizing SYstem) which is developed to help designers evaluate and modify their 3D design to generate the redesign alternatives and finally analyze the effect of environmental design change within a short time. Because DOROSY is based in CATIA which is familiar to engineering designers using the parametric designed template, engineering designer can apply the Eco-friendly idea to product design efficiently.
