How do I know if automation is right for my operations?
We begin with a consultative discovery session to evaluate your current process, productivity goals, and ROI targets. From there, we design automation strategies tailored to your business.
What are the cost factors involved in automation?
Project costs vary by complexity, scope, and technology. We provide transparent proposals and help calculate ROI to support capital investment decisions.
How do we get started?
Contact us to schedule a discovery consultation. We’ll assess your needs, define a roadmap, and provide a clear plan for moving forward.
Should I automate my operation? What is the financial benefit?
Automation offers measurable returns by improving throughput, reducing labor costs, increasing consistency, and enhancing workplace safety.
Return on Investment (ROI) depends on factors such as system complexity, production volume, and labor offset.
- For standard, productized systems, ROI can be realized in as little as 12–18 months.
- Custom-engineered solutions with higher complexity often yield long-term value through scalability, uptime, and quality improvements.
Our team can help you assess ROI as part of your automation roadmap.
We don’t have in-house robot or PLC programmers. Can you help with setup and ongoing support?
Absolutely. DiFACTO America provides fully turnkey automation solutions, which include:
- Onsite system installation, testing, and commissioning
- Operator and maintenance training tailored to your team
- Remote and onsite technical support as needed
Our engineers remain on-site until the system is fully operational. We also offer flexible support packages and training options to ensure long-term system success—even if you’re new to automation.
I’m new to robotics—how do you ensure employee safety?
Safety is fundamental to every system we design. All solutions comply with OSHA, RIA, and ISO safety standards.
Each system includes engineered safeguards such as:
- Light curtains and area scanners
- Safety-rated interlocks and fencing
- Emergency stop zones and floor mats
- Safe collaborative modes for cobots
Every design undergoes a thorough safety review by our engineering team before deployment. Our goal is to create a system that protects your team while boosting productivity.
