The CREDIT project addresses the existing challenges of circular remanufacturing using a human-centric innovation approach. It focuses on the digitalisation of assets (A), the establishment of multi-layered digital twins (B) and the development of an open-source distributed ICT platform (C) that will enable seamless data management and the complex implementation of digital twins. In addition, various digital services enabling remanufacturing (D) will be integrated, including AI-based decision support systems, traceability and quality control based on distributed ledger technology (DLT), predictive maintenance and general support tools for remanufacturing operations such as augmented reality (AR). In addition to these technologies and tools, a comprehensive methodology for training and education (E) will be developed to ensure that the factory reaches the appropriate level of maturity.

Five different business cases in the white goods, telecommunications, aerospace and automotive sectors were designed based on their relevance and potential for broad impact. These use cases will be designed together with stakeholders according to the Social Innovation methodology, ensuring that specific objectives and technologies are aligned with the needs of end users. By providing an operational environment, these use cases will serve as a basis for achieving the final TRL7 and demonstrating the platform’s adaptability and potential for use in different industrial sectors. This will be supported by an extended replicability study. The project’s far-reaching impact will impact multiple target groups, contributing to a more sustainable, efficient and socially responsible future for the manufacturing industry. CREDIT will deliver economic benefits such as increased efficiency, lower production costs and increased competitiveness, while addressing environmental issues by reducing waste, lowering carbon emissions and reducing raw material consumption. This is in line with the EU’s green manufacturing and sustainability objectives.
