The world is changing, the peace is getting more and more costing.
The material cost is going up, top two affecting our screw barrel business is petro and tungsten.
When petro gets more expensive, transportation cost increases fast and frequently.
When tungsten cost goes up and up, bimetallic screw barrel cost have to grow as well.
As a screw barrel manufacturer, there is normally a validity for each quote.
When Tungsten is involved, it's really hard for us to make the calculation.
As known, it takes days or even weeks for a quote to be translated into an order,
What is the best to do if the cost is too high, order now or later?
What to do if the cost goes even higher when the order finally comes in?
As a manufacturer, shall we make a quote or simply say NO?
No matter what we do, it's not a good time.
We hope the world will be back to peace, humans will be back to love, screw barrels will fly back to extruder machines and injection molding machines as expected.
