Revisiting Automation Myths: Is Automation Really Too Expensive? A few weeks ago, we discussed some common myths about automation. Today, we’d like to revisit one of the most persistent ones: 💭 Myth: “Automation is too costly compared to using human labor in production.” ✅ Reality: While it’s true that automation often requires a higher upfront investment, it usually turns out to be more cost-effective in the long run. The key is selecting the optimal automation solution. Not every situation calls for custom-built single-purpose machines or expensive industrial robots. 🤖 Collaborative robots, for example, can handle many tasks and can be acquired for an amount equivalent to the cost of employing 4 production workers for 3 to 6 months! By automating, you also avoid expenses that can inflate your production costs, such as:  • Higher costs for overtime, holiday, or night shifts  • Demands for wage increases  • Expenses for protective equipment  • The need to find replacements for sick workers Moreover, having people perform monotonous, repetitive, and easily automatable tasks is simply not “in” these days. Utilize your human workforce for activities with higher added value. Let the machines handle the rest. 🦾 👉 Interested in exploring cost-effective automation solutions? Let’s talk!
