Description
Aimed at:
Engineers, technical engineers, industrial technicians in general, industrial maintenance technicians, maintenance managers, naval industry technicians, offshore industry technicians, Merchant Navy engineering officers, naval mechanics, teachers, students, and anyone interested in learning how to interpret hydraulic and pneumatic plans and diagrams.
Objectives:
The aim of this course is to learn how to correctly interpret both hydraulic and pneumatic diagrams, recognising most of the elements and actuators used in this type of circuit and how they operate. It also includes an explanation of the different electrical actuation and control diagrams.
It is a curse eminently practical, with numerous examples of real-life cases that students will work on, ensuring their learning.
Video presentation of the course:
Methodology:
The course is delivered online through our virtual campus in a comfortable and flexible environment by eliminating travel and the rigid schedules of face-to-face training. It also has various communication tools that allow students to stay in touch with teachers and fellow students, thus ensuring effective training with a high degree of student engagement.
The assesment of the course will be carried out by theoretical tests and practices also available online. If you pass the course with a minimum grade of five, the corresponding certificate will be issued. diploma acreditativo.
This course is taught by a qualified professional, who has proven professional experience and specialised training in this field.
