Our goal is to provide the highest quality product
and outstanding service to our customers. Our manufacturing
facility allows us to efficiently handle large and small projects.
Our team of experienced craftsmen will
assemble to our design specifications or yours. Before any panel
leaves our facility it is point to point tested and can be FAT
function tested using our custom test panels. This extra effort
reduces field wiring and start-up time. Additionally, it adds
an extra layer of safety to everyone involved in the
process.
Our staff consist of highly knowledgeable Project Managers, Designers, Wiremen and assemblers who work together with a quality objective. Redundant quality checks are incorporated throughout the design and manufacturing process, from design to fabrication to programming to integration to project management to commissioning - HMC makes sure that every step is of the highest quality workmanship and of the highest quality components.

Testing
All panels fabricated by HMC undergo a detailed, documented Panel Checkout Procedure developed specifically for each panel. To assure that your panel matches its specifications perfectly, we have a 65 point QA checklist and every control panel is hot tested before delivery. All PLC output points and hardwired circuits are hot verified. All high voltage circuits are checked for continuity and ground faults.
