DESCRIPTION:
This two-day program addresses hydraulic principles as
they relate to the design of new systems or improvement of existing systems,
taking into account current industry practices and the price-quality ratio
of the final product (1).
(1) Starting with project specifications, students will
develop engineering drawings for a hydraulic unit and select the right
components based on specified requirements.
COURSE OBJECTIVES:
After completing this program, students will be able to:
- Select the appropriate cylinder(s) based on the intended application
- Select the appropriate motor(s) based on the intended application
- Select the appropriate pump based on the intended application
- Select the appropriate directional valves based on the intended
application
- Select the appropriate accessories based on the intended application
