Scope creep—the sneaky tendency for projects to grow beyond their original bounds—looms for every manufacturing project. The best way to avoid unnecessary scope creep is to first understand what it is and what it is not.

If you’re not branding your industrial products, then you’re missing a highly valuable opportunity to convey a consistent representation of your organization’s credibility, product quality and overall value. Your customers are spending thousands of dollars to purchase your equipment, so shouldn't they readily know who produced it?

Many of the industrial products HUI manufactures have a powder coated paint finish. As with any finish applied to any product, the powder coating we apply needs to be tested to ensure that the finish is going to last. The following is a brief description of some of the tests we commonly use to validate that our powder coated finishes are in-tolerance, properly cured and ready to stand up to the usage and environmental conditions your products will be used in.

Customers who entrust a manufacturer with their industrial design and production have high expectations about quality and reliability. That’s understandable, and it’s also why manufacturers need to plan for failure in order to prevent it.

Industrial manufacturers rely on failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) to identify and eliminate potential defects early in the process in order to avoid costly late-stage correction. The result? Quality products, pride in craftsmanship and satisfied customers.
