Sustainable Disassembly
Project description
Main research question:
"How can the reverse logistics diagnosis process be standardized and reproducible for the KPN Box 12?".
Context
Reverse logistics manages the backward flow of goods—from customers back to retailers or manufacturers—for returns, recycling, or disposal. Unlike traditional logistics, it focuses on recovering value from returned, damaged, or unsold products while minimizing waste.
Results
We created a voltage difference measuring device - named: Curve-Debugger - that shows the voltage difference between 2 components. This can be used to diagnose problems within a device under test - in this case, the KPN Box 12 - if a reference device is available. With this, you don't have to rely on schematics and other information from the manufacturer.
