Completely Hydraulic Expands Workshop Capabilities with the Largest Lathe in the South of England
Completely Hydraulic, a leading UK hydraulic engineering company, has announced the expansion of its workshop capabilities with the installation of the largest lathe in the South of England. This strategic investment significantly strengthens the company’s ability to deliver ram repairs, precision machining, and general turning services for customers across multiple industries.
Essex, United Kingdom, 20th Sep 2025 – With depots in Essex, London, Kent, Heathrow, and Birmingham, Completely Hydraulic has built a strong reputation for keeping machinery moving with 24/7 mobile hydraulic repairs. Now, the company is enhancing its workshop services to take on jobs many competitors cannot accommodate.
The new lathe enables Completely Hydraulic to handle oversized hydraulic rams, complex cylinders, and large industrial components with precision and speed. This ensures faster turnaround times, reduced outsourcing costs, and improved quality control for clients.
“This investment is about giving our customers confidence that no job is too big,” said Lewis Waller, spokesperson for Completely Hydraulic. “The lathe allows us to repair and machine components that would previously have been turned away or subcontracted out. It keeps projects on schedule, saves money, and reinforces our promise to always find a solution.”
With the new lathe in operation, Completely Hydraulic can now provide:
- Full hydraulic ram repairs, resealing, and rebuilds
- Precision machining and turning of large components
- Custom hydraulic cylinder manufacturing to OEM or improved specifications
- Pressure testing and compliance checks
These services support industries where hydraulic reliability is mission-critical, including construction, transport, logistics, marine, recycling, and renewable energy.
The South of England is home to a broad range of heavy industries and infrastructure projects. From excavators and cranes on construction sites to forklifts in logistics centres and offshore cranes in marine operations, hydraulics are at the heart of many essential systems.
When hydraulic rams or cylinders fail, the resulting downtime can cause significant operational and financial disruption. By expanding its machining capacity, Completely Hydraulic is ensuring customers in these sectors have access to local, large-scale hydraulic support without the need for expensive outsourcing or long lead times.
Completely Hydraulic is widely recognised for its 24/7 emergency mobile service — with engineers dispatched directly to breakdowns for hose replacements, ram resealing, and troubleshooting.
The addition of the new lathe strengthens the company’s ability to complement this rapid on-site response with advanced workshop solutions. This dual capability means customers can rely on one provider for both emergency call-outs and high-precision machining of larger hydraulic components.
This workshop expansion reflects Completely Hydraulic’s long-term commitment to investing in facilities that serve UK industry. By keeping machining work in-house, the company offers faster delivery, tighter quality control, and greater reliability than many competitors.
“It’s not just about having the biggest lathe,” Waller added. “It’s about what it enables us to do for our customers. Faster repairs, higher standards, and assurance that we can take on hydraulic challenges others can’t. That’s what sets us apart.”
