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 | F-EA Economical | Single Arm YuMi® |
|---|---|---|
| Investment | $17,000 | $30,651 |
| Payback period | 4.1 mo | 7.4 mo |
| Net savings (5 yr) | $233,000 | $219,349 |
| ROI (5 yr) | +1371% | +716% |
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.
