Hydro Systems with SandRob™: How a Made-in-USA Company Streamlined its Manufacturing with 21st Century Robotics

In a market increasingly driven by low-cost outsourcing, Hydro Systems—a California-based manufacturer—chose a different path, one defined by craftsmanship, family ownership, and a relentless commitment to quality. As one of the last remaining American manufacturers in the luxury bathtub market, Hydro Systems wasn’t just producing products—they were preserving a legacy. However, maintaining that legacy brought challenges: long lead times, rising labor expenses, and the constant challenge of scaling without compromise. To address these issues, Hydro Systems partnered with Roboticom. https://roboticom.it/app/uploads/2025/04/hydroSuccessStory.mp4 “We’ve not only cut lead times in half, but also maintained the quality our customers expect—with the human touch an integral part of the final product.” Ken Steinhardt, Marketing Director at HYDRO SYSTEMS, INC Automation Without Compromise Roboticom’s 7-axis robotic system and dynamic pressure control, sanding and polishing became fully automated—with quality that matched (and often exceeded) hand finishing. The results were immediate: lead times were cut in half. Skilled workers were redeployed, productivity surged. The Right Partner Makes the Difference What set Roboticom apart was their approach. Rather than relying on lofty promises, they focused on demonstrable results. One pivotal demo showed that Roboticom’s robots could deliver the same hand-polished finish without the inconsistency or delay. The collaboration felt less like a transaction and more like a shared investment to long-term success. The New Standard for Luxury Today, Hydro Systems is producing more, faster, and without compromising the craftsmanship that defines its brand. With Roboticom as a partner, Hydro Systems has proven that innovation can protect their legacy. Together, the two companies have redefined modern luxury manufacturing—blending advanced automation with the enduring values of quality and care. https://roboticom.it/app/uploads/2025/05/hydroSuccessStory_sanding.mp4
