Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
This introductory textbook is designed for undergraduate courses in hydraulics and pneumatics/fluid power/oil hydraulics. It offers a practical guide that reflects field practices in the design, operation and maintenance of fluid power systems - making it a useful reference for practising engineers specializing in the area of fluid power technology as well.
With developments in industrial production, fluid power components have also undergone modifications in design. To keep up with these changes, additional information and materials on proportional solenoids have been included in this second edition. Drawings/circuits in the pneumatic section have also been updated. This edition includes a CD-ROM that provides the engineering specifications of pumps and valves being currently manufactured by the industry.
Key features:
Gives step-by-step methods of designing hydraulic and pneumatic circuits. Provides simple and logical explanation of programmable logic controllers used in hydraulic and pneumatic circuits. Explains applications of hydraulic circuits in machine tool industry. Elaborates on practical problems in a chapter on troubleshooting. Chapter-end review questions help students understand the fundamental principles and practical techniques for obtaining solutions.
Include bibliographical references (p. 287) and index.
