Description
Individual hydraulic components are the building blocks of hydraulic systems. In this unit you will see how the components you have studied and others make up a machine designed to accomplish a task. Hydraulic powered and hydraulic controlled machines are used in so many businesses and industries that it is impossible to list them all. Hydraulic machines can be used to lift, position, hold, move, and press many different parts or materials. Many hydraulic systems contain other control and sensing devices and subsystems such as pneumatic, electric, or electronic components. To properly maintain and troubleshoot hydraulic power systems, you must be familiar with how all of the various components interact to make a useful machine.
