FAQ
Common questions
What does this calculator include?
Labor you can reassign, scrap and rework you avoid, and the value of extra good parts if the station is a bottleneck. It does not include maintenance, energy, floor space, taxes or depreciation.
How accurate is the payback estimate?
It's a planning estimate based on the numbers you enter. We'll build a detailed justification with you once we understand the part and process.
What's a typical machine investment?
It depends on the process, cycle time and level of automation. Standard X Platform™ machines cost less than ground-up custom builds. Request a quote for a budgetary number.
