Why do cooling fan manufacturers have higher and higher minimum order requirements?

With the advancement of society, the delivery of cooling fans is fast, and costs are rising (mainly due to rising labor costs and rising rents, resulting in material costs in Shanghai). The market is changing rapidly. Therefore, cooling fan manufacturers also require more orders from customers. ? For example, to customize a high-power 12038 cooling fan, the manufacturer needs to purchase a customized PCB board, but the minimum order quantity of SMT patch is not 5K, and the supplier does not accept the order because the startup cost is high. If the customer only orders 1,000 units, then 4,000 of the 5,000 boards ordered by the cooling fan manufacturer will become inventory. This kind of customized boards is not easy to find the same customers to use. It takes up space and money in the warehouse, so For this kind of high-power cooling fan with PWM function, if the amount is less than 5K, either the cooling fan manufacturer will add the relevant cost, or it will not be connected to the frame. It is the same reason. Some customers will buy 200 units in a few years. Previously, the frame leaf factory might have some inventory because the profit was good, or the cooling fan manufacturer would purchase more each time it purchases. Therefore, conventional models below 1,000 units are also acceptable, but now, it is also because of the inventory. The risk of starting injection is too high for 200 injection molding machines, which affects efficiency. Therefore, orders of less than 1,000 conventional cooling fans are rarely accepted.
