Are you in the market for new hydraulics for your production process or operation? Custom hydraulic fabrication continues to grow in popularity for a variety of reasons. While the custom fabrication of your next hydraulic system will take time and of course cost some money, here's why this is something worth looking into.

Optimize Efficiency and Performance

When you build a custom hydraulics system from the ground up, you can ensure that every last part is custom designed to maximize your system's overall performance. You'll get everything done as efficiently or as fast as possible. This means less downtime for your company, overall greater production, and more money coming into the company coffers.

Additional Durability and Resistance

If you know your particular work process has caused durability issues with previous hydraulics, this is an opportunity to prepare in advance. For example, you could build with different types of materials than a standard hydraulics setup, allowing for more long-term durability. You could also use material designed to be more resistant to corrosion or other issues that might have popped up for you previously.

Precise Control and Accuracy

A custom build for your hydraulics can also allow you to be more precise with pressure and the flow of liquid or other substances throughout the system. Beyond the better performance and efficiency mentioned earlier, this greater sense of control can provide more accuracy and consistency from product to product, leading to better overall customer satisfaction over time.

Saves Money Versus Adapting

While it's true that a custom hydraulic fabrication will cost you something up front and will likely be more expensive than buying a standard system, you should also compare this with the cost of having to adapt a standard system. In other words, if you are going to buy a standard system and then immediately make changes to it after the fact, it may be more cost-effective to just build it from scratch right from the start as opposed to trying to adapt a standard system to meet your needs afterward.

Better Support

While this may vary from builder to builder, most companies that offer custom hydraulic fabrication will stand behind what they build for some amount of time. You'll get better ongoing support and perhaps even help with maintenance compared to what you get when you buy a pre-built standard system.
