Buying used goods is becoming increasingly popular as thrifting apps and secondhand shops rise in demand. The same goes for used robots: with the availability of an online marketplace like iGAM, buying refurbished robots and manufacturing equipment is easier than ever. Find out the top 5 reasons buying secondhand equipment will help your company below.

Cheaper

On average, brand new robots are twice as expensive as used robots. If the quality, performance, and delivery are all the same, why not save several thousand dollars and choose a used robot that has been repaired and reconditioned?

Environmentally responsible

A study published in Forbes revealed that consumers prefer companies that are environmentally and socially responsible. Buying used equipment as opposed to new is more sustainable since you are saving precious resources. When you buy used, you are one step closer to becoming a consumer-preferred choice!

Same quality

Used does not mean faulty. In fact, iGAM ensures that our refurbished robots and manufacturing equipment are restored to like-new conditions. Our partnership with Manufacturing Repair & Overstock (MRO, Inc.) and their 20-month warranty coverage gives you peace of mind that you are adding the best equipment to your manufacturing line.

Easy integration

Buying the same product to replace your original equipment makes it easy to integrate into your manufacturing line. You will save time, money, and energy by replacing your robots with refurbished substitutes rather than programming a new robot into your assembly.

Easy maintenance and repair

Your technicians will not have to spend time learning how to use and repair a different robot when you buy the same one used at a lower price. This lowers your risk for malfunctioning equipment and supports a smooth production process.
