ROI Comparison
Same operating assumptions across every robot — the only difference is price. Set your numbers once to see which pays back fastest.
Annual labor displaced (per robot): $50,000
| Metric | SWIFTI CRB 1100 | MiniCobo |
|---|---|---|
| Investment | $29,300 | $13,313 |
| Payback period | 7.0 mo | 3.2 mo |
| Net savings (5 yr) | $220,700 | $236,688 |
| ROI (5 yr) | +753% | +1778% |
Estimates labor-cost displacement only — not a full total cost of ownership. Actual ROI depends on integration, maintenance, training, downtime, and task fit. Converted currencies are indicative; USD is the price of record.
