About Hydro

Hydro, Inc. is a global leader in industrial pump reengineering, headquartered in Chicago. Since 1969, we have been the world’s largest independent pump rebuilder, delivering engineering expertise, precision repairs, and support services to critical industries.

Your Day, Your Impact

On second shift, you arrive to a clean, organized cell ready to transform raw stock and castings into precise pump components. You open Mazatrol on a Mazak lathe, review prints with conventional and geometric tolerances, and decide whether to create or modify an existing program to meet a custom requirement. With tooling laid out and raw material staged, you complete setups on both lathes and mills, dialing in offsets to hold tight 0.001\" tolerances. Throughout the run, you tune speeds and feeds to push productivity without compromising safety or quality, and you verify results with the right measuring tools before handing off a perfect part to the next operation.
