When you source aluminum castings abroad, the most common frustrations are:
- High Price: 20‑30% above market average due to limited supplier competition.
- Inconsistent Quality: Dimensional tolerances exceed ±0.2 mm, causing re‑work.
- Long Lead Times: 6‑8 weeks from order to delivery, slowing production schedules.
- Limited Customization: OEM/ODM design support is often unavailable.
- Regulatory Gaps: Missing CE, RoHS or ISO certifications leads to compliance risk.
According to a 2025 B2B procurement survey, 62% of buyers cited “price‑quality mismatch” as the top barrier to scaling their manufacturing lines.
