Abstract:
Abstract Under new “make in India policy” India has started to become global manufacturing hub and many Indian organizations are looking to implement lean philosophy to gain sustainable strategic benefits over others. Therefore, a need was felt to develop comprehensive lean evaluation system for Indian automotive small & medium sized enterprises in order to measure its present lean status and potential improvements to gain significant strategic advantages. Research started with the identification of various lean factors and associated sub factors through literature survey. Fuzzy analytic hierarchy process was applied to assign weight to various extracted lean factors and sub factors because of its evident merits. Fuzzy comprehensive analysis was applied to assess present status of Indian automotive small and medium sized enterprises, where lean does not practice. Lean performance of Indian automotive small & medium sized enterprises was ascertained as poor. The proposed model could be useful to guiding the Indian automotive small and medium sized enterprises in judicial selection of lean practices to gain significant sustainable strategic advantage over its competitors. Novelty of this research is to emerge from the development of comprehensive lean measurement model for Indian small and medium sized enterprises in automotive sector.

Abstract:
Sustainability is a key area of concern for manufacturing firms’ long-term success. However, the manufacturing industry has not been fully conscious of the potential sustainable values across manufacturing system. There is a need to better understand how companies can improve sustainable value creation. Recent research and practices have shown that sustainable operations can be one way to create sustainable values (e.g. economic, environmental and social). This review article focuses on the available empirical studies on the impact of lean and sustainability practices on sustainable performance from 2000 to 2018 in the context of manufacturing firms. Integrating lean and sustainability practices into manufacturing system confrontы operations managers with paradoxical tensions of sustainability objectives. Theoretically having paradoxical mindset will help firms’ managers make sense of and responв to such paradoxical tensions. In the context of sustainable operations studies, the issue of paradoxical mindset has been given less emphasis. Therefore, through the lens of the paradox theory, this study has developed a new conceptual framework for future research to investigate how paradoxical mindset moderates the impact of lean and sustainability practices on the sustainable performance of manufacturing industry. This study may add to the understanding of the circumstances, under which lean and sustainability practices impact sustainable outcomes.

Abstract:
In this paper we investigate the elaboration of an efficient production schedule for sustainable manufacturing systems. Because renewable energies are irregular by nature as they often depend on meteorological conditions (e.g. wind and solar energy), their use in the competitive field of manufacturing production must be addressed with caution. The challenge is to elaborate a reliable production schedule that accommodates energy stochastic fluctuations while satisfying customer and operational constraints. We propose to solve the problem using a meta-heuristic based on Tabu search and discuss major elements that are critical to the success of this approach.

Abstract The sustainable development concept has become an extraordinarily important formative element of all activities taken by both law makers and the society, including entrepreneurs, for favour of broadly comprehended natural environment protection. This article presents the analysis of practical implementation of the sustainable development concept in manufacturing companies in Poland in the years 2010-2012. It also verifies directions of expenditures made towards environmental protection fixed assets, depending upon investment types, i.e. whether they were end-of-pipe investments or integrated technology investments. It was found that in the industrial processing sector in Poland, the highest average share of expenditures was associated with air and water protection fixed assets, whereas, in case of amounts spent on air protection means, a fall was observed in their share, and an increase in case of water protection. Furthermore, end-of-pipe investments dominated within the structure, whereas an increase was observed in the share end-of-pipe investments, and a fall in the share of integrated technology investments. It was also found that total amounts spent on environmental protection fixed assets per one company and per one employee increased, and the share of this type of expenditures in the total value of fixed assets obtained from manufacturing companies’ investment activities increased as well.

Abstract:
Research highlights the increasing engagement of SMEs in adopting sustainable practices to enhance their sustainable performance. This paper extends the current literature on sustainable manufacturing practices (SMPs) and SMEs’ sustainable performance by examining the mediating effect of competitive capabilities and the moderating impact of environmental regulation. Structured questionnaires were used to collect data from 288 manufacturing SMEs in China. Research findings using structural equation modeling with partial least squares (PLS-SEM) revealed that adopting SMPs enables SMEs to gain competitive capabilities and to positively influence their sustainable performance. In addition, gaining competitive capabilities have a positive mediating impact on the relationship between SMPs and SMEs’ sustainable performance. Further, the interaction between SMPs and environmental regulation strengthens SMEs’ sustainable performance. At the end of this paper, a set of concluding remarks and implications is drawn.

Abstract:
European union end of life vehicle directive mandates the use of more sustainable/recyclable materials in automotive industries. Thermoplastics matrix-based composites allow recyclability of composites at the end of life; however, their processing technology is more challenging than thermoset composites. Manufacturing process and mechanical testing of sustainable sandwich composite made from sustainable materials: flax, recycled carbon fiber, polypropylene, and recycled PET foam are presented in this article. High pressure compression molding with adhesive thermoplastic polymer film was used for manufacturing sandwich composite skin. The recycled PET foam core was integrated/joined with the skin using a thermoplastics adhesive film. A three-point bending test was conducted to compare the flexural properties. The results show that such sustainable sandwich composites will be an excellent material for truck side panel to operate in adverse wind/storm conditions. The sustainable sandwich composite can potentially be an excellent candidate for the fabrication of light-duty, lightweight, and low-cost engineering structures in automotive industry to meet the EU end of life requirements.

Abstract:
Today, manufacturing products in a sustainable way is increasingly becoming essential in the eyes of investors, authorities and customers. Failure leads to fines, penalties, and customers choosing to go to the competition. Success, on the other hand, can save money, helps build a reputation, attracts investment, spurs innovation, secures loyal customers and brings in repeat business. Taking into account the sustainable manufacturing is not just longer a caprice for the business.During the end of the twentieth century and into the twenty-first century two types of manufacturing systems that emphasize waste minimization have emerged: Lean and Green manufacturing. Despite the importance of Green manufacturing to the environmental problem, many companies are still skeptical about the business benefits. In the same time, however, a good many of them see the business benefits of Lean manufacturing. Several research efforts summarized in the literature review indicate how both systems share many of the same best practices to reduce their respective wastes. Yet, these two systems tend to operate independently.The aim of this research is to explore and to determine how the Lean manufacturing can include Green manufacturing system components in their overall strategy to reduce waste.

Abstract:
Natural fibers have attracted great attention from industrial players and researchers for the exploitation of polymer composites because of their “greener” nature and contribution to sustainable practice. Various industries have shifted toward sustainable technology in order to improve the balance between the environment and social and economic concerns. This manuscript aims to provide a brief review of the development of the foremost natural fiber-reinforced polymer composite (NFRPC) product designs and their applications. The first part of the manuscript presents a summary of the background of various natural fibers and their composites in the context of engineering applications. The behaviors of NFPCs vary with fiber type, source, and structure. Several drawbacks of NFPCs, e.g., higher water absorption rate, inferior fire resistance, and lower mechanical properties, have limited their applications. This has necessitated the development of good practice in systematic engineering design in order to attain optimized NRPC products. Product design and manufacturing engineering need to move in a mutually considerate manner in order to produce successful natural fiber-based composite material products. The design process involves concept design, material selection, and finally, the manufacturing of the design. Numerous products have been commercialized using natural fibers, e.g., sports equipment, musical instruments, and electronic products. In the end, this review provides a guideline for the product design process based on natural fibers, which subsequently leads to a sustainable design.

Abstract:
Recently, some critical events (e.g., the economic decline, the growing socio-ecologic burden, even more demanding customers, etc.) have led several companies to re-think their “shoring” decisions. Therefore, many of them decided to reshore manufacturing or to bring back home production activities previously offshored. This phenomenon represents one of the current imperatives for research. In fact, the location where manufacturing takes place has a massive influence on the sustainability of firms on a local and global level. Therefore, to better understand what makes reshoring strategies sustainable as well as to identify the drivers that can boost it, further research is still needed. The explorative nature of this paper recognizes some motivations or drivers for making reshoring strategies sustainable. To this end, a structured and narrative literature review has been conducted to grasp and describe the main motivations and implementation characteristics that can make reshoring decisions sustainable. The achieved results better define reshoring and the influence that some drivers, especially digital innovation, can play on the related strategies and on their sustainability. In doing so, this work is one of the first contributions that jointly approaches reshoring, sustainability, and digital innovation.

Resumo: Diante das novas demandas em prol do desenvolvimento sustentável, é comum ouvir as empresas falando em produtos sustentáveis, em produção "verde". Mas para que essas afirmações sejam realidade existe a necessidade urgente de que as empresas compreendam e incorporem a visão da sustentabilidade aos seus negócios. O objetivo dessa dissertação é apresentar e relacionar os princípios e escopo da Manufatura Sustentável, alinhando-os aos indicadores do Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), demonstrando a viabilidade das empresas utilizarem os indicadores para a gestão das operações com foco sustentável. A dissertação tem como base a revisão bibliográfica sobre a Manufatura Sustentável e de alguns instrumentos que auxiliam a sua implementação, como o Ecodesing, a Produção Mais Limpa e a Avaliação do Ciclo de Vida. O estudo de caso fornece indicadores que evidenciam que o processo de implementação de um processo de produção sustentável é possível, quando realizado de forma estruturada e com a liderança da alta direção na condução desse processo gradual e contínuo. Os resultados obtidos com o cruzamento do estudo de caso com os indicadores, evidenciam que o processo analisado tem potencial para ser efetivamente uma manufatura sustentável, além de estar apto a realizar e divulgar o seu relatório de sustentabilidade, com base no GRI. Os dados obtidos são reforçados numa tabela de indicadores (essenciais e adicionais) com potencial de atendimento. Com isso, essa dissertação demonstra que os indicadores de sustentabilidade também podem ser utilizados como norteadores para a manufatura sustentável
Abstract: Due to the new demands when it comes to sustainable development, it has become very usual for companies to discuss sustainable products, in "Green" production. In order to make these statements true, however, companies need urgently to understand and incorporate the vision of sustainability into their own business. The objective of this dissertation is to present and relate the principles and the scope of the Sustainable Manufacturing, thus aligning them with the indicators of the Goal Reporting Initiative (GRI), demonstating the corporate feasibility in using such indicators to the management of sustainable focus operations. This dissertation is based on the bibliographical review on Sustainable Manufacturing and some instruments which help its implementation, such as: Ecodesing, the Cleaner Production and the Life Cycle Assessment. The case study of a re-refining process provides indicators evidencing that the implementations process of a sustainable production process is possible - when performed in a structured manner and led by the company's high management. This process is gradual and continuous. The results otained when crossing the case study with the indicators show that the process analysis has potential to effectively become a sustainable manufacturing, in addition to being able to perform and divulge its sustainbility report, based on GRI. The data obtained are reinforced in a scorecard (essential and additional) and have attendance potential. This way, this dissertation demonstration that the sustainability indicators can also be utilized as guidelines for the sustainable manufacturing

Abstract:
AbstractProduct eco-design includes several methodologies aimed at supporting companies in the development of sustainable products. Currently, this theme is assuming an important role in both the academia and industry worlds due to the increasing attention to environmental problems and the need for a transition toward circular economy business/organizational models. In this context, the present paper focuses on the industrial sector of espresso coffee machines manufacturing which has several unexploited potentialities. The analysis of the sector specificity (internal and external contexts), as well as of the product lifecycle allowed to define an eco-design framework to guide companies involved in the design and production of espresso coffee machines. Effective eco-design strategies should include the combined use of specific methods, tools and metrics to manage all the most important lifecycle phases (beginning of life, middle of life, end of life) during the design activities in order to set preventive actions that avoid future potential environmental impacts. Only in this way, the environmental and economic benefits of the circular economy paradigm (e.g. remanufacturing/reuse of selected components) can be practically exploited in real industrial contexts. The presented case studies confirmed that the application of design for disassembly rules positively contributes to increase the product performances during maintenance and end of life, while a re-design oriented to component modularity could be a key strategy to pursue remanufacturing for boilers, a key and expensive component included in espresso coffee machines.

For sustainable manufacturing, energy consumption, air and waste emission, and environmental impact of product and process are analyzed in product and process development. The sustainability assessment is realized based on complete, structured information models of product, process and manufacturing resources, which are proposed in this paper. After analyzing the process of unit assembly and machining, two information models of unit assembly operation and unit machining process are given in UML representation. Besides the basic process parameters, the sustainable manufacturing related information such material consumption, energy usage, wastes and greenhouse air emission are also considered in the models. The manufacturing resource mode is core model to relate process and sustainability indicators. The resource information model of machining tool is proposed with process parameters and unit data of indictors. A sustainability assessment process is given in the end.

Abstract:
Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic has imposed new challenges to maintaining sustainability in our manufacturing operations. With such high variability in demand for urgently needed products (e.g., personal protective equipment, testing technologies) and shifts in the needed capabilities of already complex production systems, sustainability challenges concerning waste management, life cycle impact characterization, and production operations have come to light. An extensive amount of data can be extracted from manufacturing systems, but it is not yet being used to improve the performance of production systems and maintain sustainability strategies during times of distress. This article proposes the concept of a Digital Depot. Being virtual in nature, the depot can contain plans and data for many different types of crises and contain a wider array of products than would be available in a physical, national stockpile. The information could be made available on demand to a national base of manufacturers to help them swiftly pivot to the production of critically needed goods while building on their existing manufacturing capabilities. The contents of the Digital Depot would be applicable to several stages pertinent to manufacturing operations including product definition, production planning information, asset and factory-level data, as well as data concerning the supply chain, distribution, and end-of-life stages. Future work is recommended in the development of templates for robust and secure data sharing, as well as multi-disciplinary identification of businesses cases for data-driven collaborative and sustainable manufacturing practices enabled by the Digital Depot.

This paper presents a research effort that is underway to integrate product, manufacturing process, and supply chain models to optimize product design variants in terms of costs and environmental impacts. Integrated sustainable design and manufacturing requires multidisciplinary knowledge from various industrial domains to design and manufacture environmentally-responsible products. Sustainable design should consider life cycle costs and environmental impacts, including those related to materials and energy requirements during the manufacturing, use, and end-of-life phases of a product’s life. This paper discusses important technological requirements in product architecture and integrated optimization to realize integrated sustainable design and manufacturing. Finally, this paper introduces a scalable design environment, called the Sustainable Product Development Collaboratory, which can convey sustainability principles in the context of product architectural design, manufacturing, assembly, and supply chain decisions to designers. Potential benefits of this platform are also discussed.

The aim of this paper is to propose a framework to guide engineers’ use of LCA tools to optimize three important stages of a product’s life cycle. The three phases are product concept design, manufacturing process and products end of life recycle. A mountain bike has been used as an example to demonstrate how engineers are guided by the proposed framework. The proposed framework does not only lead industry in a sustainable design direction but also guide them to embed sustainable thinking into every stage of a product life cycle based on their existing resources. Some design tools and techniques have been incorporated with life cycle assessment tools to achieve the sustainable optimization of the products.

Full text
Abstract:
People that work on the development of mechatronic products do not have enough data related to the end of the product lifecycle when making decisions related to the product design. Sustainable design tools in Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) systems could enable more sustainable designs with ‘greener’ decision-making. PLM tools, which are supporting designs of mechatronic products, are lacking more consideration about the product’s overall lifecycle ecological footprint. Most decisions that are made during the design phase are based on costs of materials and processes that are involved in development and manufacturing, not to the service, reuse, recycling and disposal of such products. This study will investigate the possibility of including the data related to the end of the product lifecycle. Integrating green design tools into the PLM systems would help mechatronic engineers to develop more sustainable designs. This paper will investigate the current state of the art in the area of Product Lifecycle Management systems that support design and realization of mechatronic projects. It discusses some ideas that can be used for determining a framework for data capturing of electro-mechanical product related data. This would connect decisions in earlier phases with the ones in final stages of a product lifecycle. This data can be used for the environmental footprint determination.

Abstract:
Automation of manufacturing process with robots is an industrial challenge, generally evaluated by the Return On Investment (ROI) that such a transformation could generate. However, the automation has a considerable cost particularly for SMEs, which makes a barrier to access and limits the motivation of facilitating the manual work of the operators, despite of nonergonomic and risky situations. In this study, supported by the European project HORSE, we went through the development of a robotic solution to assist the operator in the manufacturing. This component called programming-by-demonstration is integrated in both main categories of automation: industrial robot and collaborative robot (cobot). Both applications are tested and evaluated in a real manufacturing task (cutting cast pieces from foundry) and evaluated by the industrial end-user. The paper states on the application of the developed component, and concludes with the lesson learned.

Efforts to reduce product environmental impacts such as energy consumption and carbon footprint have received attention for many years, often driven by consumer pressure on companies to produce more environmentally friendly products. As the next generation of engineers who will take responsibility for advancing the sustainability of products, processes, and systems, engineering students need to become more familiar with the concepts of sustainable product design and manufacturing. Yet, educators are disadvantaged in training these students, and tools are deficient in assisting product sustainability assessments for manufacturing decision making by other non-experts. A manufacturing analysis module is introduced, which was developed under collaborative research titled, Constructionism in Learning: Sustainable Life Cycle Engineering (CooL:SLiCE). This CooL:SLiCE manufacturing analysis module provides an opportunity for non-expert students and engineers to investigate the impacts of product design changes on manufacturing processes and supply chain network configurations, e.g., selection of upstream processes, transportation routes, and transportation modes, from environmental responsibility perspective. One popular consumer product, a multicopter, is selected to demonstrate the module. The production of three hexacopter components are evaluated: the upper shell, lower shell, and propeller. The manufacturing analysis module enables non-experts to gain a better understanding of sustainable product design and manufacturing.

Abstract:
End-of-life product recovery operations require performance improvement to be viable in an industrial environment. A genetic algorithm (GA) is proposed to optimize end-of-life partial disassembly decisions based on disassembly costs, revenues, and environmental impacts. Facilitating disassembly optimization with costs, revenues, and environmental impacts is necessary to enhance sustainable manufacturing through value recovery. End-of-life products may not warrant disassembly past a unique disassembly stage due to limited recovered component market demand and minimal material recovery value. Remanufacturing is introduced into disassembly sequence optimization in the proposed GA as an alternative to recycling, reuse, and disposal. The proposed GA’s performance is first verified through optimizing partial disassembly sequences considering costs and environmental impacts independently. Extension to a multi-objective case concerning costs, revenues, and impacts is achieved by specifying a new set of multi-objective crossover probabilities from independent crossover probabilities.

Abstract:
South Africa is a country with significant socio-economic development challenges, with the majority of South Africans having limited or non-existent access to basic infrastructure, services, housing and socio-economic opportunities etc. The urban housing backlog currently exceeds 2.4 million houses, with many families living in informal settlements. The Breaking New Grounds Policy, 2014 for the creation of sustainable human settlements, acknowledges the challenges facing human settlements, such as, decreasing human settlements grants allocation, increasing housing backlog, mushrooming of informal settlements and urbanisation. The White Paper on Science, Technology and Innovation (STI), 2019 notes that South Africa has not yet fully benefited from the potential of STI in addressing the socio-economic challenges and seeks to support the circular economy principles which entail a systematic change of moving to a zero or low waste resource-efficient society. Further to this, the Science and Technology Roadmap’s intention is to unlock the potential of South Africa’s human settlements for a decent standard of living through the smart uptake of science, technology and innovation. One such novel technology is the Three-Dimensional (3D) printing technology, which has produced numerous incredible structures around the world. 3D printing is a computer-controlled industrial manufacturing process which encompasses additive means of production to create 3D shapes. The effects of such a technology have a potential to change the world we live in and could subsequently pave the roadmap to improve on housing delivery and reduce the negative effects of conventional construction methods on the environment. To this end, the Academy of Science of South Africa (ASSAf), in partnership with the Department of Science and Innovation (DSI) and the University of Johannesburg (UJ) hosted the second virtual IID seminar titled: Exploring the Prospects of Using 3D Printing Technology in the South African Human Settlements, on 01 March 2021 to explore the potential use of 3D printing technology in human settlements. The webinar presented preliminary findings from a study conducted by UJ, addressing the following topics: 1. The viability of 3D printing technology 2. Cost comparison of 3D printed house to conventional construction 3. Preliminary perceptions on 3D printing of houses Speakers included: Dr Jennifer Mirembe (NDoHS), Dr Jeffrey Mahachi, Mr Refilwe Lediga, Mr Khululekani Ntakana and Dr Luxien Ariyan, all from UJ. There was a unanimous consensus that collaborative efforts from all stakeholders are key to take advantage of this niche technology. @ASSAf_Official; @dsigovza; @go2uj; @The_DHS; #SA 3D_Printing; #3D Print_Housing; #IID
