- Who Owns The Tooling?
Simply put, the customer owns, in part or whole, the tooling that was purchased. If we use Hudson-owned tooling as part of the process, only the customer specific tooling that makes the part unique is owned by the customer.
Regardless of ownership, Hudson Technologies maintains the tooling for life, including replacement for wear, at no charge (unless a drawing change from the customer renders the tooling obsolete).
Customer-owned tooling will be considered obsolete after three years of inactivity unless Hudson Technologies is notified in writing of its status.
