Insufficient data for full comparison
The following fields had no data for any of the selected robots: Battery / Shift Runtime, TCP Speed (Collaborative), Power/Force Limiting, Safety I/O Pairs, Duty Cycle, Setup Time, Time to Redeploy, Tool Flange Standard, Tool Changer Support, Integrated F/T Sensor, Wrist Power Supply, SDK Languages, ROS Compatible, Digital Twin Support, MTBF, Path Accuracy, CaaS / Month
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 | CRX-30iA | IIMT-CW-05 |
|---|---|---|
| Investment | $64,428 | $9,500 |
| Payback period | 15.5 mo | 2.3 mo |
| Net savings (5 yr) | $185,572 | $240,500 |
| ROI (5 yr) | +288% | +2532% |
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.
