Abstract

Technologies for improving productivity that we have developed so far are causing environmental deterioration. Recently, it becomes a key issue to save and use resources effectively from the view point of environmental protection. Therefore, trends of technology are now changing from improving the productivity to improving the recycling. This paper presents robotic technology for reusable manufacturing that realizes more effective usage of resources than conventional manufacturing. Some examples for aircraft industry are presented
