From Start-Up to Global Leader
Since 1993, Riverhawk has grown from a small hydraulic tooling operation to a world-class precision engineering company serving the most demanding industries on the planet.
Founded
Riverhawk Company was founded by a group of engineers with a vision to become a solutions provider in hydraulic tooling. Started as a 'buy and assemble' operation focused on the power generation market.
Indikon Acquisition
Riverhawk acquired the Indikon product line — a legacy brand of torque and vibration measuring devices serving turbomachinery markets since the late 1970s.
CNC Manufacturing Buildout
Transitioned from hand-tool assembly to a full precision manufacturing facility. Investment in CNC machining capabilities enabled in-house production of high-tolerance components.
Free-Flex® Pivot Line
Launched the Free-Flex® Pivot product line — frictionless, zero-wear flexural pivots designed for aerospace, semiconductor, and precision motion control applications.
Global Market Expansion
Grew into a dominant global supplier of precision turbomachinery components, serving OEMs and end users in power generation, petrochemical, nuclear, and offshore energy markets worldwide.
