I don't believe that lead time number. Nor do I believe the ROI number at these prices. I've put in chemical processing lines that paid for themselves in three months. Design and construction took three months, and that was for an unprecedented process. This is a very well-established technology with drawings on the shelves, established vendors and plenty of available industrial real estate begging for occupation.
No, I don't buy those numbers for a second.
I do because I order the equipment!
Chemical processing is way different. Margins on .22LR are in 1/10th’s of a cent....
Rage on cluelessly,
How about my turn: Impossible I put in a grain processing facility in one day! There is no way a chem processing plant can take a month! Ridiculus! There... I FEEEEL better ranting about something I know nothing about!
