Daisy disassembles iPhones to recover valuable materials for circular manufacturing.
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.

RoboScore
49.19 RoboScore + 2.23 Momentum· Adequate evidence
Products, Range, Traction set the number — the three factors present for every company. Activity, Attention, Readiness describe the brand but never move it. A value we don't have reads —, never zero. Momentum is independently collected news coverage, worth at most 15 points and never a deduction — a maker we have heard nothing about keeps its full RoboScore. Claiming or paying moves nothing.
6 of 6 factors known. How it's calculated
Milestones
Expanded Daisy deployment to Best Buy stores in US and KPN in Netherlands

Why HEBI Robotics has been in the news, across 3 outlets — collected and classified independently, so a maker cannot add to it. It never changes a robot's RoboScore — the evidence half of the RoboIndex — and it can move a robot up a board by at most 15 points.
