Robot Retrofit: When to Upgrade Instead of Replace

An older robot is not always a problem. Often a targeted upgrade returns more value than a new cell.

Signs you need to act

  • Spare parts are hard to find
  • Frequent unplanned stops
  • Safety system does not meet current standards
  • Robot cannot run new product variants
  • Programs exist only on old media

Retrofit options

  • New controller with the same arm
  • New safety system and guarding
  • Cable, gearbox and motor replacement
  • Software backup and documentation
  • Relocating to a new plant

When replacement is better

When the arm is too slow or too small for a new product, or repair costs approach the price of a new robot.
