Hydraulics with UniTrain
Hydraulics with UniTrain
The courses teach the basic principles of hydraulics and electrohydraulics. Many proven experiments are used to clearly illustrate the operation and design of hydraulic and electrohydraulic control systems.
Course content
- Basic principles of hydraulics/electrohydraulics
- How to read hydraulic and electrical schematic diagrams
- Operation of single- and double-acting cylinders
- Latching control systems
- Operation of various directional control valves
- Basic circuits with AND/OR logic
- Basic circuits with self-locking
- Displacement-dependent control systems
- Preparation of displacement-time graphs
- Time-dependent control systems, with pull-in and drop-out delay
- Sequence control systems and sequence chains
- Relay logic control systems
- Programmable logic controllers

The training system imparts fundamental knowledge and skills for working with hydraulics and electrohydraulics. In all practice-oriented project tasks, core and specialized qualifications are integratively taught by including independent planning, execution, and monitoring.
