Abstract
Remanufacturing is a key discipline at the end of a product's life or use cycle. Besides the economic advantages, remanufacturing is also more ecological compared to the new production of parts. Due to the rising amount of product variants and the resulting increasing process complexity, as well as the dirty old parts used, remanufacturing processes face different challenges than processes in new productions. Unfortunately, there are hardly any tools available to analyze and compare remanufacturing processes. Therefore, this paper shows the results of an analysis of remanufacturing operations by using a capability maturity model.
