By: MiR "While sales of our mobile robots continue to thrive, many companies still prefer to lease their logistics equipment rather than make a capital investment upfront," said Thomas Visti, CEO, MiR. "Leasing the robots becomes an operational expenditure instead, enabling our customers to quickly get started reaping the benefits AMRs offer as they automate monotonous, repetitive, and often injury-prone manual material transportation." With MiR Finance, customers get the chance to lease the "full package," including the robots, integration and top modules for the robots. The monthly cost of the leasing depends on the type of robot and the length of the leasing period, but a simple calculation shows that it costs $4.44 per hour (or $711 per month) to lease a MiR100 robot if it runs in one-shift operation. Thereby, MiR Finance becomes an attractive way of investing in mobile robots and start optimizing internal logistics. Flexible Terms, Maintenance Provided MiR's distributor network will be working with a third-party company to provide lease programs for the customer. The leasing terms are flexible, with 48 months being a popular option. MiR's distributors will continue to be responsible of first-level support, service and maintenance. In this way, not much will change for the end-customers, who will now have one more option in terms of payment for their robots, while the usual benefits from MiR's global reach and local support will continue.
