Hello I've been tasked with scrapping several ticket vending machines, like the ones used in transit operations to dispense tickets for cash/credit. I've attached pictures of the main boards: raw, and after I've (attempted) to process and depopulate into sorted buckets.
Is it advisable to remove the capacitors?
Heat sinks, RAM, CPU have been separated and grouped accordingly. Fuses, metal brackets, and anything otherwise loose is removed.
