Take a look at this web site on some Brain Teasers I use to reinforce some areas of training in Fluid Power.
They may seem simple at first but most require you to think in depth to come up with the right answer.

When I design a hydraulic circuit I always specify Flow Meters on the Pump (Pumps) Outlet/s to indicate if there is flow and how much flow. To keep the Flow Meters in as new shape I use two 3-Way Ball valves piped with straight line flow past the Flow Meter so it can be turned on for trouble...
Does anyone know of a facility that repairs/rebuilds the units that are seen on Surface Grinders built by the subject company?
They are self contained units that are mounted in the lower casting and contain all functions for table reciprocation.

I notice several persons on this site mention they teach a Fluid Power class (Hydraulic and/or Pneumatic. I would like to take a survey on what text you use and what you like or don't like about that material.
Feedback from students would also be great here since I have always wondered what...
I find very few people in industrial or mobile facilities in my part of the world that are trained to design, maintain or trouble shoot Hydraulic or Pneumatic equipment. There are college trained Electrical Engineers and Apprentice programs for Electrical Maintenance persons and these people are...
