How It Works
Our Refurbishment & Testing Process
Every robot that enters our Detroit facility goes through a documented, multi-stage evaluation process before it reaches a buyer.
Step 01
Intake & Assessment
Full documentation of model, serial number, controller type, software version, and visible condition on arrival at our Detroit warehouse.
Step 02
Power-Up & Diagnostics
Controller power-on, alarm history review, battery backup status, safety chain testing, and teach pendant evaluation.
Step 03
Axes & Motion Testing
Full J1–J6 movement testing, backlash checks, servo drive evaluation, repeatability spot-checks, and audible anomaly inspection.
Step 04
Refurbishment
Targeted repairs: lubrication, failed component replacement, controller servicing, and cosmetic restoration.
Step 05
Condition Rating & Listing
Findings documented and listing published with accurate photos and full disclosure.
How We Do It
Our Multi-Stage Evaluation Process
iGAM's process was developed specifically for the demands of industrial robot resale. We don't just check that the robot powers on — we run a systematic protocol that mirrors what a plant engineer would want to know.
Step 01 — Intake
Documentation & Intake Assessment
When a robot arrives at our Detroit facility, we begin with a complete intake inspection. The unit is photographed, all identification information is recorded, and accessories are inventoried before anything else happens.
✓Robot make, model & serial number recorded
✓Controller model & software version noted
✓Hours of operation documented from controller logs
✓Full exterior photo documentation
✓Visible damage or wear conditions noted
✓All accessories and components inventoried
Step 02 — Testing
Power-Up & Alarm Diagnostics
With intake complete, we power the robot on and perform a systematic diagnostic review — checking alarm history, battery backup status, and controller health before any movement testing begins.
✓Controller power-up and boot verification
✓Fault and alarm history review
✓Battery backup status (memory & encoder batteries)
✓E-stop circuit and safety chain test
✓Teach pendant display and button check
✓Communication I/O status evaluation
Step 03 — Testing
Axes Movement & Mechanical Testing
Each axis is exercised through its full range of motion. We evaluate smoothness, listen for mechanical anomalies, and check for binding, backlash, or irregular behavior that could indicate worn components.
✓Full J1–J6 axis range of motion test
✓Backlash check on all joints
✓Audible check for unusual mechanical sounds
✓Wrist assembly rotation and articulation
✓Repeatability spot-check on reference positions
Step 04 — Testing
Servo Drive & Motor Evaluation
Servo drives and motors are among the most critical — and costly — components in an industrial robot. Our technicians evaluate servo performance data and check for early signs of drive or motor degradation.
✓Servo drive voltage and current readings
✓Motor thermal condition check
✓Encoder feedback signal verification
✓Regeneration circuit evaluation
Step 05 — Refurbishment
Targeted Refurbishment & Repair
Based on testing findings, our in-house technicians perform targeted refurbishment — from lubrication and cosmetic work on excellent-condition units to component-level repairs on machines requiring more attention.
✓Joint lubrication per manufacturer specification
✓Battery replacement (memory & encoder)
✓Damaged cover or casing repair
✓Controller board-level troubleshooting & repair
✓Painting and cosmetic restoration
Step 06 — Documentation
Listing & Documentation
After testing the robot is listed on iGAM.com with accurate documentation. Buyers can review what was found and repaired before purchasing.
✓Known issues and repairs documented in listing
✓Photos updated post-refurbishment
✓Software version and controller config noted
✓Included accessories and components itemized
✓Published to igam.com inventory

Frequently Asked Questions
Common Questions About Used Robots & Automation
Where can I buy a used FANUC robot near Detroit, Michigan?
iGAM is Detroit's leading supplier of used FANUC robots. We stock a wide range of FANUC models — including the M-10iA, M-20iA, M-710iC, R-2000iB, and M-900iB series — all tested and ready for resale. Our warehouse is located at 6501 E. Nevada Ave., Detroit, MI 48234, and we ship throughout the US and Canada. Browse inventory at igam.com.
What is the difference between a used robot and a refurbished robot?
A used robot has been removed from service and resold with minimal intervention. A refurbished robot has been inspected, tested, and repaired to restore functional working condition. At iGAM, every robot is evaluated by our technicians — we document condition issues, perform necessary repairs, and disclose everything in the listing.
How much does a used industrial robot cost?
The price varies based on brand, model, payload, condition, and whether a controller is included. At iGAM, used robots typically sell for up to 80% less than new replacement cost. Compact 6-axis robots may start under $5,000; high-payload heavy-duty robots range from $15,000 to $60,000+. Contact iGAM for current pricing on specific models.
What robot brands does iGAM carry?
iGAM carries robots from the four major global manufacturers: FANUC (Japan), KUKA (Germany), ABB (Switzerland/Sweden), and Yaskawa Motoman (Japan). We also stock associated controllers, teach pendants, end-of-arm tooling, cables, and servo components for each brand.
Does iGAM buy used robots and automation equipment?
Yes. iGAM actively purchases used robots, CNC machines, and surplus automation equipment from manufacturers across the United States, particularly in states east of the Mississippi River. We handle the full decommissioning and logistics process. Visit igam.com/sell-your-equipment to request a quote.
Does iGAM sell CNC machines in addition to robots?
Yes. iGAM carries a broad inventory of used CNC machinery alongside robots, including machining centers, lathes, turning centers, and multi-axis mills from brands like FANUC, Siemens, DMG MORI, Doosan, and others — all inspected and condition-rated before listing.
How fast can iGAM ship a robot after purchase?
Most inventory can be scheduled for shipment within 24 hours of purchase. iGAM manages outbound logistics in-house from our 250,000+ sq. ft. Detroit warehouse, coordinating freight carriers experienced in handling heavy industrial equipment safely.
