Apple develops Daisy, a de-manufacturing robot for disassembling used iPhones to recover recyclable materials like gold, tungsten, cobalt, lithium, and rare earth magnets. Daisy processes up to 200 iPhones per hour across 9 models (iPhone 5 to 7 Plus), breaking them into 15 parts using a five-robot assembly line with punching, cryogenic air for battery removal, and AI sorting. Operates in Texas, US and Netherlands, supporting closed-loop supply chain for new products.
