Tool — investment simulation

Investment and payback simulation for a processing line

Model capex, raw material cost, yield, utilities, labour and selling price to see contribution margin, payback and sensitivity. Every parameter is editable and every assumption is shown next to the result.

Inputs you control

  • Equipment capex, installation and civil works
  • Raw material cost, process yield and waste value
  • Utility consumption and local energy tariffs
  • Labour per shift, shifts per day, campaign days per year
  • Selling price per format and target market

Outputs

  • Contribution margin per tonne and per shift
  • Simple payback and cumulative cash flow
  • Sensitivity on the parameters that move the result most
  • Exportable summary for your internal review

Read the results correctly

The simulation documents assumptions and arithmetic so your team and your bank can challenge them. It is a planning tool, not financial advice, and it does not replace a feasibility study on your site.

Send us your raw material, target product and throughput. Our process engineers reply with a feasibility view and the assumptions behind it.
