AUTOMATION & PAINT ROBOTS
New online calculator demonstrates
scope for savings with ABB robots
ABB Limited has
launched an online
return on investment
calculator to help UK
small to medium size
enterprises (SMEs)
discover the cost and
productivity benefits
offered by industrial
robots.
Available from
the ABB website
(http://new.abb.com
/products/robotics
/roi-calculator), the
calculator demonstrates
how companies can
often recoup their
outlay on robots within
just two years through
enhanced levels of
performance and
competitiveness.
“Despite all the
evidence to the
contrary, many UK
businesses still
believe that robots
are prohibitively
expensive to purchase
and operate. Our ROI
calculator shows how
robotic technology
can actually deliver
long term consistent
performance with
minimal overheads,
helping companies
to better predict
factors, such as
cost of production,
turnaround times,
output levels and
product quality.”
Users can select from a choice of industrial
applications including Arc Welding; Machine
Tending; Plastic Injection Moulding; Picking,
Packing and Palletizing. Quick and easy to use,
the calculator enables users to see whether they
could reduce their costs by automating their
process with robots.
