The focus is on combining smart robotics solutions, digital twins, AI-based decision support, non-destructive testing, and end-to-end traceability. The goal is to avoid prematurely scrapping components, but rather to evaluate their condition based on data, determine suitable remanufacturing routes, and ensure their reuse on an industrial scale.<br>The approach is being validated in three demonstrators from the construction machinery, automotive, and electric drive technology sectors. In doing so, REWIRE addresses key challenges of the circular economy: lower material consumption, reduced CO\u2082 emissions, higher resource efficiency, and traceable quality of remanufactured products.<br>LCM plays a central role in the project by defining and evaluating sustainability and impact KPIs. In addition, LCM contributes its expertise in digital modeling, simulation, and SyMSpace to enable the evaluation of remanufacturing decisions based on energy, CO\u2082, material, and process metrics. Another focus is on simulation-based verification, compliance, and the provision of traceable evidence for subsequent demonstration, validation, and sustainability reporting.     <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n    <section  class=\"section-desc\">\n\t\t<div class=\"container\">\n            <div class=\"section-desc-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2> \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tProject f<mark>ocus<\/mark>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"block-desc\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li>Industrial Recycling Instead of Scrapping<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li>Assessment of Component Condition, Repairability, and Reusability<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li>Use of Robotics, Digital Twins, and AI<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li>A Transparent Database for Quality and Sustainability<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li>Demonstrators in Construction Equipment, Automotive, and Drive Technology<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2> \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tLCM <mark>contribution<\/mark>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"block-desc\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li>Definition of Sustainability and Impact KPIs<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li>Assessment of Energy, CO\u2082, Material Use, and Process Time<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li>SyMSpace-Based Simulation of Remanufacturing Routes<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li>Support for Compliance and Verification<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/section>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-7387b849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<p class=\"has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-1 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Project partners<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Ireland:<\/strong> Irish Manufacturing Research (Coordinator), Dromone Engineering Ltd., University College Dublin<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Italy:<\/strong> University of Genoa, Fiat Research Center (Stellantis), ICONS Foundation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Greece:<\/strong> University of Patras \u2013 Laboratory for Manufacturing Systems and Automation (LMS)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Spain:<\/strong> IDEKO S.
