Robots are cost-effective – The payback period is short, productivity high.
can work for 24 hours at the same high quality without a break. Without robots, machine tools achieve a utilization capacity of about 70 percent; with robots, nearly 100 percent is possible. Because robots don’t need to rest.
Robots will never replace humans. But by compensating for humans’ limitations, robots safe- guard the economic efficiency of production – and thus also protect jobs. Relocating production to low-wage countries is no longer an issue with robots, because robotic automation is a considerably more efficient, cost-effective and reliable option.
