The investment of a robotic island in its own production compartment is challenging.
When can I say I have amortized it?
Compared to a long time ago, fortunately, amortizing a challenging investment such as a robotic system in one's production division is easier, and now we will see why. The first advantageous reason for investing in a robotic island today is due to the fact that the development of systems expertise and simplified robot management makes the incorporation of such advanced technology addressable by almost any company.
A priori, as with any real and justified investment, one should ask a couple of simple questions before choosing how to proceed:
Is the product being manipulated or made with the help of a robotic arm economically superior to the actual totalitarian investment?
Also:
Does the value of the line itself, justify adding and contracting out other mandates?
Making a robotic island, adapted to your needs, means buying not only the robot but also the adjoining accessories (conveyor belts, tables, stations, accessories in general...), evaluating programming costs, transportation costs but, above all, of integration to your already structured production compartment.
Having completed due consideration of the investment to be addressed, the real value of the product to be manufactured or manipulated must be assessed by evaluating current costs. If, by eliminating the processes and out-of-pocket expenses of today, with the introduction of tomorrow's robotic island, the cost of the product would decrease; then: the investment is the only way for the competitiveness of the manufactured product itself.
Good rule of thumb, by making a detailed analysis and following the above guide, one always realizes that the investment in a robotic island brings a production advantage never before encountered.
Our facility can help you conduct a detailed analysis of your production chain in order to understand the competitive advantage of such an investment and decide whether to initiate a major change such as the inclusion of robotic equipment in your production department means.
It is winning to be able to replace production processes with an anthropomorphic arm. Robots work 24 hours a day: they do not ask for breaks and do not go on sick leave. There is, however, a need for primary investment and maintenance. However, human supervision is necessary and necessary: the operator must check that everything is going well and must verify that the whole mechanical process is working according to plan. Personnel are then employed in activities other than purely manual ones as they were in an industrial production system.
Investments in a robotic plant should return within 12/24/36 months, relative to the initial investment. Together with our consultants, we can help you understand the actual payback timeframe.
The costs of implementing a robotic island are much less than in the past , and it proves to be a consistently successful choice in a modern, structured industry.
When there is economic crisis-as in this sensitive and strategic moment-connected to the development of a viral epidemic like Covid19, social imbalances also occur, and robotics gives real support to keep businesses from closing down and create different jobs than before.

In conclusion, we must recognize that if even one VAT number were to close, it would be a failure for our entire society: only by lowering expenses can we remain competitive and still in business. Therefore, amortizing the cost of a robotic plant can and is feasible in the short term. This is a guaranteed result and it is real.
A word of advice, also look out for the aid and tax awards in this regard that are the full and concrete demonstration and social approval.
