Hydraulic Systems Volume 8: Advanced Designs for Mobile Applications
This 4.5-day (27-hour) seminar is targeting industry professionals who are in charge of operating, maintaining, and designing hydraulic systems for Mobile Machines. This seminar covers twenty chapters. The first four chapters cover conceptually the systems that are commonly found on all mobile machines such as hydrostatic transmission, control blocks, steering systems, fan drive systems, hybrid systems, and mobile machine electrification. The rest of the chapters cover different categories of mobile machines such as excavators & shovels, loaders, dozers, graders, road construction machines, aerial work platforms, forklifts & telehandlers, cranes, mining equipment, municipal & hauling trucks, concrete pumps & mixers, tractors & AG machines, tunnel-boring machines, aerospace applications, marine and military applications, and railways applications.
