Design and Assessment of an Environmentally-friendly General-purpose Pump

概要

Consideration of 3 R (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) is strongly required for industrial products' design. General-purpose pumps' design makes them difficult to disassemble and classify into single material. Their value-adding functions continue to improve through increased quality, reduced costs, unification of multiple functions, adoption of bond connection methods, built-in compression, and so on. Such features make disassembly difficult.<BR>We developed and manufactured an environmentally friendly general-purpose pump to improve the problems cited above. We specifically improved the disassembly property of the motor, which includes useful, resource-rich parts, and introduction of the concept of"Up-Grading"products, which can realize up-grading of its structure during the use stage. Our assessment method shows that this pump has a 36% lower environmental load than the former product.
