Too difficult to even guess. I doubt that it would be a stock item at Metso as these sorts of things are usually ordered a long time in advance. Might get one from China quicker. Give the problems I would hope that they oversize the next one so as even with unexpected downtime it doesn't hold up production.

At least now finally they have told us what the problem with the filter press actually is - availability means that it is needing constant repair, operating cycle time means that they have ordered either the wrong type of filter press for what they are putting through it - or have one that is too small for the job.
