ROI Factors to Consider

Quality Improvements

Robots can increase product quality and consistency, potentially allowing price increases

Production Capacity

Robots may enable 24/7 operation and increased throughput beyond labor hour savings

Reduced Scrap

Consistent robot performance reduces material waste and rework costs

Safety Benefits

Automation of hazardous tasks reduces worker injuries and insurance costs

Equipment Lifespan

Plan for robot replacement after 7-10 years of industrial use

Operator Redeployment

Freed operators can move to higher-value tasks or other business areas
