There is a lot more to justifying a capital investment than the purchase price of a machine tool. Many other factors have a big impact on the effectiveness and profitability of a new machine. This presentation will demonstrate how you can accurately justify making an investment in new equipment that will yield the lowest piece-cost. In order to make a wise investment one must understand the costs involved, understand the tangible and intangible benefits, understand the cost of not making the investment, and finally, calculate the payback.
