Adjust price, traffic, rent and costs to model monthly profit, payback and year-1 ROI for the HANGMO fully automatic applicator — flat, curved and foldable screens, 3-minute cycle, 24/7 unattended or staff-assisted. All figures in USD for cross-market comparison.
Defaults reflect typical market pricing and operating costs for a screen-protector application machine. Every input is editable — the whole page recalculates instantly.
Landed investment = machine + starter film inventory + door-to-door freight/customs + installation. Refill labor is estimated at 1–2 hours per week at local wages (the machine still needs periodic restocking). Payment fees range from 2% to 3.5% depending on market. All results are monthly unless stated otherwise.
At current assumptions, one machine generates about $7,082/month net (gross margin 79%), a payback of ≈2.1 months. This is a strong-location profile — a good first or flagship placement.
Where wages are high, the labor-saving case is decisive. In lower-wage markets, the value shifts to consistent quality, 24/7 uptime and foldable-screen capability that manual technicians struggle to deliver.
| Item | Value |
|---|---|
| Technician wage (pre-tax) | $17.00/hr |
| Burdened cost (+30% taxes & benefits) | $22.10/hr |
| Time per manual application | 9 min |
| Labor cost per application | $3.32 |
| Machine cost per application (film + fees) | $2.40 — no labor |
| Monthly (15/day) | Manual | Machine | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| Labor cost | $1,492 | $173 | $1,319 |
| Annualized | $17,901 | $2,078 | $15,823 |
Annual labor difference: $15,823. Wages here are high — labor savings are the core sales story.
In United States, a technician costs $22/hr fully burdened, so one manual application is ≈$3.32 in labor. At 15 orders/day, manual labor alone is ≈$1,492/month. The HANGMO machine reduces that to a weekly refill visit, saving ≈$1,319/month — and it runs 24/7, standardizes quality, and handles curved and foldable screens that manual application struggles with.
Profitability depends mainly on location traffic (daily orders) and your price point. Price ranges adapt to each market. Green = strong profit, red = thin.
| Orders/day \ Price | $15 | $20 | $25 | $30 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5 | $1,074 | $1,802 | $2,529 | $3,257 |
| 10 | $2,987 | $4,442 | $5,897 | $7,352 |
| 15 | $4,899 | $7,082 | $9,264 | $11,447 |
| 20 | $6,812 | $9,722 | $12,632 | $15,542 |
| 25 | $8,724 | $12,362 | $15,999 | $19,637 |
Monthly net profit. Green ≥ $3,000, red < $1,000.

Payback in months. Green < 4, red > 10.
One operator can manage many machines remotely via cloud dashboard — scaling adds revenue without adding staff.
| Fleet size | Total investment | Monthly profit | Annual profit | Fleet payback (mo) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | $15,200 | $7,032 | $84,382 | 2.2 |
| 5 | $76,000 | $35,159 | $421,908 | 2.2 |
| 10 | $152,000 | $70,318 | $843,816 | 2.2 |
| 25 | $380,000 | $175,795 | $2,109,540 | 2.2 |
| 50 | $760,000 | $351,590 | $4,219,080 | 2.2 |
Scaling assumes a nominal management overhead of $50 per machine per month. Actual results depend on location quality and team execution.
