Welcome to the COMPASS project
Aerospace and automotive waste can be turned into high-quality components for new products thanks to digital technologies developed in COMPASS
COMPASS
Driving Circularity through Advanced Remanufacturing
The COMPASS project addresses the growing challenge of efficiently recycling and remanufacturing components at the end of their lifespan.
By employing advanced remanufacturing techniques, COMPASS extends the life of these components, minimizing the need for raw material extraction and reducing environmental impact of new component production.

A Data-Driven
Approach for
Enhanced
Remanufacturing
COMPASS introduces a novel data-driven approach to remanufacturing, leveraging digital tools and a comprehensive Digital Product Passport.
This passport captures real-time information about component performance and history, enabling intelligent remanufacturing strategies.
Digital tools
Optimizing Remanufacturing Processes and Quality
Digital tools streamline dismantling processes, ensuring efficient extraction of sheet metal and composite panels.
The passport also facilitates the collection of relevant component data, improving quality control and optimizing remanufacturing operations.
