Remanufacturing plays a critical role in achieving circularity around industrial processes, and the CREDIT project addresses the challenges facing the widespread implementation of remanufacturing through an innovative human-centred approach. This project aims to significantly improve circularity and recycling, leading to a more efficient, sustainable and socially responsible manufacturing industry.
The CREDIT project will address current challenges in circular remanufacturing by adopting a human-centered innovation approach, focusing on the following:
- Digitalisation of assets (A)
- Creating multi-layered Digital Twins (B)
- Developing an open-source-based distributed ICT platform (C), allowing seamless data management and complex DT implementation.
- A range of remanufacturing-enabling digital services (D), including AI-based decision support systems, DLT-based traceability and quality control, predictive maintenance, and general support tools for remanufacturing operations, such as Augmented Reality, will be integrated.
Alongside these technologies and tools, a comprehensive upskilling and education methodology (E) will be developed to ensure the appropriate level of maturity at the factory site.
