Keywords: ABB Flexible Automation, Robots
ABB Flexible Automation informs us that it offers businesses the opportunity to lease or purchase pre-owned equipment and take advantage of wide-ranging benefits as a result.
According to ABB, pre-owned robots provide a cost-effective alternative to the high capital investment of new equipment and can prove particularly suitable for pre-testing new product launches or covering production peaks.
The option to purchase leased equipment allows for the use of existing fixtures, programs and spares, while minimising training needs and so increasing productivity.
All pre-owned ABB robots are said to undergo a complete reconditioning which restores them to their original peak operating condition, while providing the opportunity for any upgrading of technical specifications or software that the user might require. The result is considered an efficient, reliable and affordable machine which is certified to current safety standards and is covered by a full warranty.
