3 Sustainable Manufacturing (SM)
Why companies are pursuing sustainability:
• Increase operational efficiency by reducing costs and waste
• Respond to or reach new customers and increase competitive advantage
• Protect and strengthen brand and reputation and build public trust
• Build long‐term business viability and success
• Respond to regulatory constraints and opportunities
Ways that companies progress further on the path to sustainability include:
• Address sustainability in a coordinated, integrated and formal manner, rather than in an
ad hoc, unconnected and informal manner
• Focus on increased competitiveness and revenues rather than primarily focusing on cost‐
cutting, risk reduction and improved efficiency
• Use innovation, scenario planning and strategic analysis to go beyond compliance
• Integrate sustainability across business functions 27
• Focus more on the long term
• Work collaboratively with external stakeholders
27
3 Tool to implement SM
Tool used: the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)
An approach to examine fully the environmental impact of different activities performed.
Steps in LCA:
1 Define appropriate scope
2
Develop a quantitative analysis of the material and energy
inputs to the product or process at all levels
4 Make recommendations from the findings obtained in step 1‐3

Manufacturing
Design for the Environment (DFE) or green design.
Anticipates the possible adverse environmental impact of materials,
products, and processes, so that it can be taken into account at the
earliest stages of design and production.
Main objectives : to prevent pollution at the source and to strongly
promote recycling and reuse instead of disposal.
These goals led to the concept of design for recycling (DFR).

4 Industrial Revolution 4.0 (IR4.0)
• Industry 4.0 is related to what is called the “smart factory”
(Dutton, 2014).
• In a smart factory, a virtual copy of the physical world and
decentralized decision making can be developed (Buhr, 2015).
Also, physical systems can cooperate and communicate with each
other and with humans in real time, all enabled by the IoT and
related services.
• The concept of Industry 4.0 has its origins in Germany and has
been recognized by other leading industrial nations, although it is
known as “Connected Enterprise” in the United States and the
“Fourth Industrial Revolution” in the United Kingdom.

4 Virtual Technology
Virtual reality (VR) implies a complete immersion experience that shuts out the
physical world. Using VR devices such as HTC Vive, Oculus Rift or Google Cardboard,
users can be transported into a number of real‐world and imagined environments
such as the middle of a squawking penguin colony or even the back of a dragon.
Mixed Reality (MR)
MR brings together real world and digital elements. In mixed reality, you interact with
and manipulate both physical and virtual items and environments, using next‐generation
sensing and imaging technologies. Mixed Reality allows you to see and immerse yourself
in the world around you even as you interact with a virtual environment using your own
Augmented reality (AR) adds digital elements to a live view often by using the camera
on a smartphone. Examples of augmented reality experiences include Snapchat lenses
and the game Pokemon Go.

5 Waste Reduction in Design
Design principles for economic production
1. The design should make the product as simple as possible to
manufacture, assemble, disassemble, and recycle.
2. Materials should be chosen for their appropriate manufacturing
characteristics.
3. Dimensional accuracy and surface finish should be specified as
broadly as is permissible in order to minimize manufacturing costs.
4. Net‐shape manufacturing of parts should be emphasized, and
secondary and finishing operations should be avoided or minimized.
51
5 5 Waste Reduction in Manufacturing
Lean Production
A methodology that involves a thorough assessment of each
of the activities of a company in order to minimize waste at
all levels.
Requires a fundamental change in corporate culture, as well as
an understanding of the importance of cooperation and
teamwork among management and the work force.
Agile Manufacturing
