I have NO idea why this cannot be done via the Rheinmetal that is currently in SA and part of the SA armaments industry ?

Perhaps someone could ask them ?

Here are the links

These guys in the UK are able to import

Some MP200 hit the dealers shelves and was quickly bought by everyone who could.

S335 is hens teeth again.  A new batch of decent proportions would be most welcome.

All of us who changed to the imported powders, now seem to appreciate the better prices and not-too-shabby quality of the old Somchem powders.]]> General Discussion 223 https://systemz.online/general-discussion/will-somchem-ever-recover/paged/2/#post-2558 https://systemz.online/general-discussion/will-somchem-ever-recover/paged/2/#post-2099 Mon, 23 Jan 2023 07:51:18 +0000 **********************************

I don't know what you know that makes you say that.


I know what you know.

Unless they send German technicians to operate the plant, and lay an extension cord from Europe.

Most of our fellow countrymen perceive work to be a perpetual right, not a cultivated skill. They demand jobs, they demand good wages, and they demand to not be told how to do the jobs you give them.

Quality assurance is not achievable under those conditions. Profitable business is not possible with a dud labour force.

How do the rolling blackouts affect production ? You can't stop and start the equipment in ammunition manufacture several times a day. That means underproduction, increased equipment breakage, unplanned maintenance, increased operating costs.

Under those conditions, a company cuts the loss making products. If the number of profitable products gets below a certain threshold, the investors close the plant.

The question is only if it will be mothballed, or dismantled and shipped to China.

Somchem as we knew it is a bygone era.

It's not a competitive business entity in the global economy, so it will not be around for long.
