Original Abstract Submitted
information handling systems are transported to a selected of plural micro manufacturing centers for harvesting of component modules to reuse in remanufactured information handling systems through an automated process that uses a robotic arm to harvest the component modules and rebuild the information handling systems. component module health lifecycle information is applied to select components for harvesting. carbon footprint, energy consumption, costs, any manual labor involved and time criticality are factored to select a geographical location to harvest the component modules and to send the system to subsequent end user locations.
