Four Components to Optimizing Your Powder Coating Racks

Most people look at rack design from a single, simple perspective—how many parts can fit on the hanger? As a result, the racking may be the last part of a production line that is designed and built, often as an afterthought. In reality, however, your powder coating racks are among the most important parts of your line. Inefficient powder coating racks slow down the entire production line, minimize throughput, increase your costs, add labor time and energy, and even impact team member safety. Fortunately, when it comes to quality and cost savings, production speed and safety, it all comes together with Mighty Hook.

An industry leader in production line efficiency, we practically wrote the book on quality powder coating racks. Whether we are manufacturing powder peg racks, batch racks or any number of custom rack options, we always consider these four key components in delivering the most optimized ones:

  • Productivity
    We make sure you can get as many products onto your powder coating racks as possible, to maximize your throughput. In fact, we’ve pioneered innovation in powder coating rack systems through patented inventions like our Angle Pivot System. We helped one company nearly double their capacity—from 40% to 75%—in only a few weeks. See the Angle Pivot System in action here.
  • Safety
    You need a sturdy, well-built coating rack—one that keeps your parts securely hung so they don’t fall off, and that doesn’t crack, break and injure a team member. You might think that’s pretty obvious. We do. But from what our customers tell us about their past experiences, many of our competitors don’t care about quality. On the other hand, rack reliability and production safety always come together at Mighty Hook.
  • Ergonomics
    Minimizing the amount of time and effort your team takes to put a part on the rack is critical in maximizing your production throughput. If your team struggles to set up the parts, they end up hanging less, therefore painting/coating less. If your team wastes time getting parts from one place to another and then onto a rack, they won’t be able to keep up with production requirements. Our powder coating racks are designed to complement a smooth, nearly seamless process.
  • Durability
    Powder coating racks in organic finishing are continuously abused when they are installed, used, moved and so on. The type of cleaning method they go through alone–chemical stripping, pyretic (heat) stripping–can diminish the structural integrity of the hanger/rack/hook. You need a powder coating rack that is durable and tough. That’s why we are so proud our powder coating racks are continuously given the greatest ratings for quality and reliability. No other powder coating racks will last longer.

The Best Powder Coating Racks Come Together with Mighty Hook
Every time we develop new racking options, we keep these four steps top-of-mind, while also carefully tailoring our approach to meet each customer’s specific needs. With our seamless process, from blueprint to prototype to production to delivery, plus unmatched ongoing support, it’s easy to see how it all comes together with Mighty Hook.
