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 | UR10e | WAEB-20 Collaborative Palletizing Robot |
|---|---|---|
| Investment | $46,153 | $4,400 |
| Payback period | 11.1 mo | 1.1 mo |
| Net savings (5 yr) | $203,847 | $245,600 |
| ROI (5 yr) | +442% | +5582% |
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.
