Abstract

All environmental issues, and particularly climate change, have irreversible environmental, social, and financial impacts. Significantly reducing carbon emissions by 2030, as the highest contributor to climate change, is a vital for EU as expressed in the European Green Deal. In this direction, sustainable manufacturing intends to reduce negative impacts by minimizing energy consumption, lowering carbon emissions, and optimizing resource efficiency. Hybrid Manufacturing (HM), combining additive (AM) and subtractive manufacturing (SM) processes, is a very promising process in sustainable manufacturing, in addition of being a novel approach. The aim of this paper is to identify the carbon intensive parts of a HM cell, perform carbon footprint calculations through mathematical modelling and Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and classify them as either energy or material related carbon emissions. This methodology is implemented in an HM including Direct Energy Deposition (DED) and CNC milling, successively alternating between the two to complete the part. Results indicate that at machine tool level, the material related emissions (4.64 kg CO2-eq), slightly dominate over the energy related emissions (4.51 kg CO2-eq). Powder consumption is almost solely responsible for material related emissions. Among energy related emissions, the AM cell’s chiller was the largest contributor (accounting for 28.3% of the total emissions), followed by the AM head motion system (10.9%), and laser machine (9.6%), while the subtractive process emitting considerably less in this case. Future work will aim to optimize process parameters to reduce HM emissions while ensuring high product quality.
Εvaluating混合制造过程的碳排放:以增材制造和减材制造为例
所有环境问题,特别是气候变化,都具有不可逆转的环境、社会和金融影响。正如《欧洲绿色协议》所表达的那样,到2030年大幅减少碳排放对欧盟至关重要,因为碳排放是气候变化的最大贡献者。在这个方向上,可持续制造旨在通过最大限度地减少能源消耗、降低碳排放和优化资源效率来减少负面影响。混合制造(HM)结合了增材制造(AM)和减材制造(SM)工艺,是一种非常有前途的可持续制造工艺,也是一种新颖的方法。本文的目的是确定HM细胞的碳密集部分,通过数学建模和生命周期评估(LCA)进行碳足迹计算,并将其分类为能源或材料相关的碳排放。该方法在HM中实现,包括直接能量沉积(DED)和数控铣削,在两者之间依次交替以完成零件。结果表明,在机床水平上,材料相关排放(4.64 kg CO2-eq)略高于能源相关排放(4.51 kg CO2-eq)。粉末消耗几乎是材料相关排放的唯一原因。在与能源相关的排放中,AM电池的冷却器是最大的贡献者(占总排放量的28.3%),其次是AM头部运动系统(10.9%)和激光机器(9.6%),而减法过程在这种情况下的排放量要少得多。未来的工作将旨在优化工艺参数,以减少HM排放,同时确保高产品质量。
