Aggressive Hydraulics starts with the end in mind. Other manufacturers are selling from a catalog, building generic cylinders forced to fit into an application. Aggressive Hydraulics however, starts with a different approach, Purpose-Built™ hydraulic cylinders to the customer’s specific needs. Engineers at Aggressive Hydraulics start every project with a clean piece of paper, and address the customer’s concept from the beginning.
The Purpose-Built™ Philosophy
One of the founding principles at Aggressive Hydraulics is outstanding customer service. The fluid power industry desperately needs faster responses and shorter lead times. We excel at Purpose-Built™ small-quantity runs delivered at competitive prices. The real key to this success? Our exceptional team.
We equip every new team member with powerful software and proven industry knowledge so they quickly become true experts. Together, they collaborate daily to deliver the absolute best solutions for every customer.
How do we achieve this in today’s global market? We keep the supply chain short and we get it right the first time. Aggressive Hydraulics sources 100% of materials and components inside the United States. A fully domestic supply chain guarantees reliable parts, protects product integrity, and gives everyone involved genuine pride. Our customers love knowing their cylinders are built entirely in the USA while supporting American jobs and the economy.
Advanced Technology in Design and Manufacturing
The technology that goes into an Aggressive Hydraulics cylinder is all encompassing. Purpose-Built™ design starts with 2D and 3D engineering software. The manufacturing process utilizes a custom ERP solution, built in-house, specifically for hydraulic cylinder manufacturing to sequence the operations precisely. Manufacturing itself is with a CAM system, along with four-axis machining centers. For special solutions, manual equipment is powered by trained professionals to ensure accuracy. 20% of the hydraulic cylinders coming out of the plant at Aggressive Hydraulics even have the capability for electronic feedback.
It’s important at Aggressive Hydraulics to be responsible in all they do and provide a positive affirmation to customers. While utilizing traditional advertising methods, the team at Aggressive Hydraulics is always seeking new networking opportunities. Being involved in sponsorships such as motorsports and hockey allows Aggressive Hydraulics to learn about other technologies, getting to know people and businesses outside their core markets. There’s a synergy between these sponsorships and business, they both define success by performance.
Paul Johnson, President of Aggressive Hydraulics sums it up best, “It’s important we get it right the first time, from design, to reviews during, and after the sale, we are constantly refining requirements for the customer, if there’s a problem we take care of it.” People, customer service, and technology are the driving force to provide solutions for your business.
