Hydraulic 101 Academy: Basic Hands-On Hydraulic Training & Troubleshooting.
---------------------------
IBT's Basic Hands-On Hydraulic Training & Troubleshooting course is an introduction to hydraulics. This 3-day course emphasizes hands-on training, troubleshooting techniques, and safety.
This academy is designed for anyone who works with hydraulics as part of their job or anyone who wishes to increase their overall knowledge of hydraulics. This training is ideal for Plant Managers, Maintenance Professionals, Design Engineers, Draftsmen and Hydraulic Assemblers. While some background and experience with fluid power is helpful, it is not required for attending this course.
Course material is based on an award-winning curriculum, along with additional sources commonly accepted in the fluid power industry. Course content is broad and applies to all brands of fluid power components.
IBT's training utilizes state-of-the-art hydraulic training simulators to teach hands-on applications. MF101D-TSE simulators are the safest, most technologically advanced available today. These devices allow students to build virtually any hydraulic circuit and then introduce multiple faults into the circuit. The training simulator tracks the student's progress as they learn to correct each fault.
All training materials and lunches are included. Early registration is recommended - maximum enrollment is limited to 10 individuals.
Classes will begin at 8:00 a.m. and will end no later than 5:00 p.m. each of the three days. Coursework includes lectures, presentations, discussion, component animations, cutaways and hands-on simulator exercises. Please dress appropriately and feel free to bring your own protective eyewear (non-prescription safety glasses will be provided for each student).
