Skilled welders are hard to find. Labor costs keep rising. Welding robots can solve both problems. But is the investment worth it? Here is what the numbers say.
Payback period. Most manufacturers recoup their investment within 6 to 18 months. Some achieve ROI in as few as 8 months. One company invested about $50,000 and saved $75,000 annually, with payback in under a year.
Where the savings come from. Rework reduction typically accounts for 30% to 50% of savings. NDT cost reduction adds 15% to 25%. Robots also increase arc-on time and reduce material waste.
Efficiency gains. Collaborative welding robots can boost efficiency by 60%. One welder can operate multiple robots, multiplying output.
