Hydraulics are used as a supplement to electric drive technology. Power and precision can be integrated into the process through intelligent control technology.

All exercises are performed in an Automation Runtime Simulation (ARsim).

A live session is planned every day. Participants will receive exercises afterwards. A tutor will be available in the chat at agreed times. The chat provides an opportunity to share experiences with other participants. Schedule about 2-3 hours per day.

Learning objectives and content

  • Participants will learn the basic physical properties of hydraulics.
  • Participants will get an introduction to the control of hydraulic drives.
  • Participants will learn about the differences between hydraulic control with servo valves and servo pump drives.
  • Participants will be able to configure hydraulic drives with Automation Studio and configure the controllers independently.
  • Participants will learn how to use B&R mapp components and hydraulic libraries.
  • Participants will learn how to solve control tasks on the simulation model and on an ETAL system using B&R blocks.
  • Participants will put a hydraulic training machine into operation.
  • Participants will then be in a position to prepare their custom application in the office and test all the functions in the simulation.

Tasks include

  • Participants will build and program machines with hydraulic drives.
  • Participants will integrate valve-based hydraulic controls into the control system.
  • Participants will integrate hydraulic servo pump controls into the control system.
  • Participants will simulate and commission the control application.
