Purpose

Promoting reuse and recycling

Facilitating parts search

Facilitating disconnection

Facilitating disconnection

Tools can be distinguished by drive type (for example, cross-head slots) and drive size (for example, tool size).

Facilitating disconnection

For example, if an undercut angle is 90 degrees or greater, any number of snap-fit joints that snap-fit in the same direction can be fit together simultaneously, but disconnecting them is not always possible. This requirement is considered not satisfied if three or more snap-fit joints cannot be simultaneously disconnected.

Facilitating dismantling

Case parts are free from electronic modules. Control element attached to the case and case parts which simultaneously perform the functions of the chassis are not considered as case parts.

Case parts

The manufacturer did a trial disassembly (e.g. according to 1-7 and prepared a test report focusing on the weak-points

Coating includes layers of paint, vacuum-deposited layers and print.

Promoting reuse and recycling

“Paints not to prevent recycling” refers to the paints that have the following characteristics; it possesses compatibility with materials of coated parts, and does not prevent high-level material recycling (horizontal recycling for in-house products). "Considerations for occupational safety and health" includes ventilation/air emission and worker' wearing protective equipment. "Considerations for reducing environmental burden" includes the measures to control VOC emission into the air, such as the removal equipment, the devices in coating process, or replacement by low-VOC paint.

"Can be reused as materials" means that recycled material identical to the starting material can be manufactured. (It can be used as if it were the original material.)

This item asks the intention and purpose upon designing and does not ask whether recycling is actually conducted.
