Understanding Hydraulic Systems and Components

Hydraulic equipment has become so influential in the design of industrial machinery, that without Hydraulic Systems, automation as we know it would not be possible. Through the use of Hydraulics, we have the ability to transmit and control energy.

The course begins with a review of hydraulic principles and progresses through hydraulic system components including pumps, valves, cylinders, motors, rotary actuators, accumulators and filters with emphasis placed on component structure and the identification of the components by the proper symbol as standardized by A.N.S.I. and ISO. Methods of instruction include lecture, discussion, audio-visual material including power point presentation, animation of components and systems, hands-on lab exercises with real world hydraulic components and actual operating training stations.

Several hands-on lab exercises require the students to troubleshoot real world system problems. Every application which is being discussed will be totally dissected in an animated program. This animation program allows the instructor to recalibrate; pressure, flow, torque, load and even upsize and downsize of components. This course can also be totally customized to your application.
