Payback period	—	10.9 mo
Net savings (5 yr)	—	$204,500
ROI (5 yr)	—	+449%

S30 has no listed price, so payback can't be computed. Contact the manufacturer for a quote.

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.
