The Industrial Hydraulics Handbook fills a gap in the current offerings of fluid power hydraulics books. Whereas the majority of texts are focussed on generic hydraulic systems and controls, this new book is dedicated entirely to the components, circuits and controls found on today's industrial hydraulic machines. Each of the book's 16 chapters begins with a review of the fundamentals, and from there moves quickly into the advanced aspects of industrial hydraulic control.
The Industrial Hydraulics Handbook is suitable for industrial hydraulics courses at TAFE and Polytechnic level. Review questions are included at the end of each chapter to encourage the reader to test their understanding of the explained principles. This handbook is also a useful, practical reference for mechanics, technicians and engineers working with industrial hydraulic equipment in the field.
