POLIMI’s activities within the FENIX project are focusing on a semi-automated PCB disassembly process implemented at the Industry 4.0 Lab, aiming to demonstrate in practice benefits of exploiting I4.0 technologies (e.g. collaborative robots – cobots) in circular contexts (e.g. WEEE management). The disassembly of PCBs is a key process withn […]
Fenix project is developing a unique process for reintroducing recycled precious metals from waste electronics back to the circular economy in the form of highly personalised and customised jewellery. The process involves the following steps: A Specialised 3D scanning hardware and software with accurate face scanning capability is installed in […]
