Transportable Universal Fluid Power Laboratory for Professional Training Courses

The Milwaukee School of Engineering (MSOE) is well known for its professional fluid power short courses.  The most popular, Introduction to Hydraulics, is offered several times a year on the MSOE campus. Because it utilizes six state-of-the-art hydraulic trainer stations that can be taken on the road, the course can also be offered on site at company locations. 

The original lab station was developed with financial support from the CCEFP. Subsequently, this station was expanded to include pneumatics so that several courses, including one on controls strategies, can be delivered on-site at companies and other universities.

Specifications for the machine are available for download by clicking here (PDF).
