Most customers use a standard NPV calculation to evaluate the purchase of our systems. The benefits are typically reduction of the cost of an escape (defect that gets past QA inspection), reduction of labor, improved yield (when data is used for process improvement). We have seen NPVs that show a ROI in as little as 3 months.

Systems range from $70,000 USD to $300,000 USD depending on size, speed, and inspection needs. An additional initial investment of 10% to 20% for shipping, installation travel costs, and application services is also typical for most applications.
