Workshop Description

A well-designed electrohydraulic system utilizing proportional or servo valves is more than the sum of its individual components. It starts with gaining a firm understanding of the machine being controlled, the interdependency of the system components, and how physics and the underlying mathematics impact system behavior. The holistic approach presented will provide for a more robust and controllable system design with increased performance and reliability.

Join Rance Herren, CFPSD, CFPAI – a 40-year veteran of the fluid power industry and owner of Fluid Power SME, a Houston, Texas-based consulting firm – for this powerful workshop. Whether you're designing new systems or troubleshooting existing ones, this session will help you better understand the full scope of electrohydraulic system design and how each part of the process contributes to overall system success. This workshop is intended for engineers, system designers, technicians, or anyone looking to enhance their understanding of electrohydraulic systems and how to control them. Participants should bring a scientific calculator or use a calculator app on their smartphone.
