Eco-Friendly Server Disposal: How to Handle Retired Servers

According to a 2026 study in Resources, Conservation and Recycling, AI servers could generate 131 to 225 kilotons of e-waste per year by 2030, the same as Norway and Denmark combined. E-waste generation and technological advances are making retired server disposition a growing environmental challenge. But eco-friendly server disposal methods can reduce waste generation by 16% to […]

Taking Rote Work Out of CPE Testing

In Bydgoszcz, more than 250 testers sit along a conveyor-fed test line and run CPE tests automatically. Yet a technician still has to place every device in a tester, plug it in, and pull it out again afterward. We’ve now set up the first robotic cell built to take over that work.      As […]

How to Build a Data Center Migration Project: 10 Step Plan

Most data center migrations fail in execution, not in planning. The project gets approved, the schedule holds, the budget is set, and the problems start when the work begins affecting live systems. That is when minimizing downtime starts competing with following the agreed sequence. Decisions get compressed: whether an undocumented dependency matters, whether a validation […]

Turning Site-Level Improvements Into Network Capability

A good process improvement should not stay local. One of the advantages of Reconext’s operating footprint is that teams across our 22 global sites can develop and test improvements at the same time, then share what works across the network.  When one facility has already solved a problem, another doesn’t have to start from scratch.  That means our teams document more than […]

Extending Coverage: Platform Updates Across the Reconext Network

A proven platform is worth more the further it reaches. Four of our purpose-built hardware and agentic solutions are extending their coverage right now, whether that means more sites, improved process, or upgraded hardware.    Atheris   Atheris, our automated label removal platform, is now running at Grapevine, Texas alongside existing installations. Improvements have come directly out of production use.  The peeling blade is now manufactured […]

Automated Device Initialization: Removing the Prep Bottleneck in Mobile Refurbishment

  Innovation at Reconext begins with observation. The steps that draw the least attention often hold the largest gains, and preparing returned devices for testing is a clear example.  Every returned device has to be charged, erased, and brought up to current software before testing can begin. Done one at a time, that work sets the pace for everything behind […]

Raising the Bar on Precision: How Automation Is Transforming Camera Screen Polishing

  At Reconext, we never stop looking for ways to optimize, even if business is already secured. If there’s any opportunity to push quality higher and recover more value, we’ll dig it up and build it into the program.  One example of this drive shows up in our work with a major camera manufacturer.   In […]

Scaling Innovation Across the Reconext Network

At Reconext, innovation is how we compete. Our vision is straightforward: let automation handle the repetitive work so our people can focus on the judgment calls and problem-solving that actually move the needle.  That vision is now showing up in the numbers. Several of our recent automation and AI platforms have moved out of pilot […]

What a Consolidated APAC Reverse Logistics Program Actually Delivers

Asia Pacific is the world’s largest electronics manufacturing market, yet the reverse logistics infrastructure serving it has never quite matched that scale. The region spans dozens of distinct regulatory environments but has none of the harmonized frameworks that make multi-country operations more manageable in places like EMEA.  OEMs hoping to manage after-sale programs independently are forced into fragmentation, leaning on multiple local vendors to piece […]

Raising throughput on a high-volume automation line

On high volume electronics programs, the smoothness of an automation line has a direct impact on everything around it. If the line hesitates, operators feel it. If the flow backs up, quality teams feel it. Customers eventually feel it too. This is why our engineering teams pay close attention to the small details that make these lines run well.  […]
