Mek (Marantz  Electronics), a leading provider of Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) and Solder Paste Inspection (SPI) systems, is proud to launch its new Return On Investment Calculator, designed to help electronics manufacturers determine the financial viability of investing in Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) systems. This transparent, unbiased tool allows users to enter key production data such as operator and programmer wages, annual PCB output, and batch size, providing detailed insights into the cost-effectiveness of automated versus manual inspection.

The calculator offers an easy-to-understand estimate of potential savings, payback periods, and long-term ROI for AOI adoption. By using trusted industry standards, the tool offers users transparent calculations with formulas visible next to each parameter. This makes it accessible for manufacturers of all sizes to make informed decisions about optimising their inspection processes.

“We believe that AOI can offer substantial savings for manufacturers, but understanding the return on investment is crucial,” said Shoich Rashid, Sales Director at Mek. “Our new calculator is the first step in helping businesses determine whether automated inspection is the right solution for their operations.”

The tool is freely available online and provides a no-obligation, simple way for companies to assess their potential savings with AOI technology.
