Repeated IPs for easy swapping - possible? (alien.top)

Hi guys,

I'm setting up a network with a series of groups of computer, tag printer and laser cutting machine for a home project. I need these groups to be easily replaceable/swappable, and for that I'm planning on setting up all them with fixed IPs behind a router for each group, so one computer can be replaced for another without having to configure IPs all again.

Each router would be connected via WAN port to the ISP's router with their own IP.

Communication with both the printer and the laser cutter is done via fixed IP.

Will this work? What possible issues could I have, or what should I do to prevent them?
