Daisy can recognise and disassemble any iPhone model from the iPhone 5 to the iPhone 12. — AFP Relaxnews
Launched in 2018, Daisy is a disassembly robot created by Apple. It can recover the various components of an iPhone in order to recycle them. Regularly updated, it is now capable of recognising and managing the disassembly of 23 different iPhone models.
There are only two Daisy robots in the world, one in Austin, Texas and the other in Breda, in the Netherlands. Each can process up to 200 smartphones per hour, or more than a million per year. Daisy consists of different articulated arms, each dedicated to a step in the disassembly of the smartphone. Everything takes place on a mini disassembly line inside a glassed-in, secure area. We were able to see Daisy at work in Breda.
