Thanks for the follow-up.
As intended, Tetra is using BMG's as TOOL STEEL.
As such, it appears they will be able to get Many, Many plastic reproductions prior to replacement. So certainly, this is an intermediary step with limited volume. The end result in plastic, is of course, very voluminous in contrast, and that is wear the money is.
Of course, since Dublin says the tooling here is done at one tenth the cost of regular tooling, and is far superior, TETRA will be able to extract the maximum margins, IMHO.
But, yes, you are right.....not much in it for LQMT.
AGAIN, LQMT needs and R&D effort which it has piddled away.
Perhaps Visser will develop his own in house R&D effort in tooling as well, on a nanoscale level.........who knows............?
