Développement d'un système automatisé « 4.0 » de tri et de traitement des métaux pour des fins de recyclage

该项目巩固了工业维修技术研究所（ITMI）和msamtal du Golfe公司之间的新伙伴关系。其主要目标是改善材料回收设施的业务绩效和职业健康与安全方面。该项目特别关注基于4.0技术的金属和橡胶切割和分离工艺的优化。该项目将分为四个阶段。第一阶段将对可回收材料的分类、切割和处理过程进行分析和理解，以确定优化和自动化这些过程的可能解决方案。该项目的第二阶段包括开发改进分选和处理过程的方法，例如设计适当的自动化切割方法（通过水射流或热切割）和从大块金属中分离橡胶（热冲击：感应加热或氮冷却，机械冲击）。第三阶段包括验证建议的解决方案和设计的设备，验证此类项目的可行性及其与公司战略的一致性。最后，最后一个阶段包括向合作伙伴展示项目结果，执行包含最新技术的技术转让，总结导致回收过程优化的反思，设计的模型，以及解决方案成本计算的细节。对于信息和管理研究所，项目成果将支持培训新技术领域的高素质人员，重点是提高材料分类和回收设施操作员的业务和健康与安全绩效。对于该公司来说，该项目将允许开发自动化回收流程，以保证设备的运行可用性，同时也降低了设备的运行和维护成本。此外，这将有可能弥补外地人手不足的问题，最重要的是减少由于操作设备而造成职业伤害的危险。

This project consolidates a new partnership between the Institut Technologique de Maintenance Industrielle (ITMI) and Métal du Golfe company. Its main objective is to improve the operational performance and occupational health and safety aspects in material recycling facilities. This project focuses particularly on the optimization of cutting and separation processes of metals and rubbers based on 4.0 technologies. The project will be divided into four phases. The first phase will provide analysis and understanding of the sorting, cutting and handling process for recyclable materials in order to identify possible solutions for optimizing and automating these processes. The second phase of the project consists in developing the methods to improve sorting and treatment processes such as designing an appropriate automated method for cutting (by water jet or thermal cutting) and separating (thermal shock: induction heating or nitrogen cooling, mechanical shock) rubber from the large block of metals. The third phase consists of verifying the proposed solutions and equipment designed and validating the viability of such a project and its alignment with the company's strategy. Finally, the last phase consists of presenting the results of the project to the partner, carrying out the technology transfer containing the state of the art, the summary of the reflection leading to the optimization of the recycling process, the models designed, and the details of the solution's cost calculations. For ITMI, the project results will support the training of highly qualified personnel in new technological niches focused on improving the operational and health and safety performance of operators of material sorting and recycling facilities. For the company, this project would allow the development of automated recycling processes to guarantee the operational availability of equipment, but also to reduce their operating and maintenance costs. In addition, it would make it possible to compensate for the lack of manpower in the field, and above all to reduce the risk of occupational injuries due to the operation of equipment.
