Purchase FAQ

Common questions about purchasing automated sorting systems

What financing options are available for purchasing an automated sorter?
We offer multiple financing options including equipment financing loans (36-84 months, 5.5-9.5% interest), lease-to-own programs, manufacturer financing, and SBA loan assistance. Many customers qualify for 0% down payment options. We work with a network of lenders to find the best financing solution for your business. Pre-approval typically takes 1-3 business days.
What tax advantages come with purchasing an automated sorting system?
Purchasing qualifies for significant tax advantages including Section 179 deduction (allowing immediate expensing of up to $1,160,000), 100% bonus depreciation for new equipment, and potential state and local incentives. These tax benefits can reduce your effective purchase cost by 30-50% depending on your tax situation. We recommend consulting with your tax advisor to maximize these benefits.
What is included in the purchase price of an automated sorter?
The purchase price includes the complete sorting system, professional installation at your facility, comprehensive training for your team, 3-year comprehensive warranty, and 1-year preventive maintenance. It also covers delivery to your location and integration support with your existing systems. Extended warranties (5-7 years) and maintenance plans (3-5 years) are available as optional add-ons.
What is the typical ROI period for a purchased sorting system?
Most customers achieve ROI within 6-18 months depending on their parcel volume and labor costs. For operations processing 15,000+ parcels daily with average labor costs, ROI is typically 6-12 months. The system pays for itself through labor savings (reducing from 6+ operators to 2), increased throughput, reduced errors, and improved operational efficiency. We provide detailed ROI analysis specific to your operation.
Can I get a demonstration before purchasing?
Yes, we offer multiple demonstration options: virtual demonstrations via video conference, on-site demonstrations at our showroom facilities in key locations, or we can arrange a pilot rental program where you can test the system in your facility before committing to purchase. Demonstrations typically take 60-90 minutes and cover all key features and benefits.
What happens after the 3-year warranty expires?
After the standard 3-year warranty expires, we offer extended warranty options (5 or 7 years) and maintenance plans. Even without an extended warranty, we provide repair services and support. Most systems require minimal maintenance beyond the warranty period, with typical annual maintenance costs around 2-3% of the original purchase price for preventive maintenance and occasional parts replacement.
How long does installation take?
Installation typically takes 1-2 weeks from delivery to full operation. This includes assembly, electrical and network connections, calibration, and testing. Your facility needs to be prepared with adequate space, proper electrical supply (208-240V, 3-phase), and appropriate climate control. We provide detailed facility requirements during the proposal phase and can assist with facility preparation planning.
What if my needs change after purchase? Can I upgrade?
Yes, we offer upgrade paths for all our systems. You can add additional sorting destinations, increase capacity, or upgrade to newer technology. Many upgrades can be performed on-site with minimal disruption. We also offer trade-in programs for customers who want to upgrade to newer models after several years of use. This ensures your investment remains valuable as your business grows.
