Featuring easy-to-understand explanations of theory and underlying
mathematics principles, this book provides readers with a complete
introduction to fluid power, including hydraulics and pneumatics.
The differences and similarities between hydraulics and pneumatics
are identified, allowing readers to leverage their knowledge en
route to new skills. Detailed color illustrations, photographs, and
color-enhanced schematics are used effectively to add clarity to
discussion of the construction and function of components. A
dedicated section on component specifications is featured in each
chapter, while realistic numbers are used and problems are stated
in such a way as to develop practical system design skills.
Knowledge of college-level algebra is assumed, but no trigonometry
or calculus is required, making this book ideal for the
technologist. Nomenclature, metric prefixes and conversion factors,
equations, and graphic symbols are located in handy appendices for
use by readers as they progress through the book. An introduction
to the industry, plus a comprehensive glossary, is also included
for the benefit of those who are just beginning their study of
fluid power. Benefits: * Color is used in technical illustrations
throughout the book, improving the readers' ability to distinguish
between the parts that make up a component. * Schematics feature
flow paths traced in color, so that readers can learn to read
schematics while gaining an understanding of basic circuit
operations. * Equations and examples for US Customary and SI
(Metric) units are given separately, providing the flexibility to
cover both systems or place more emphasis on one vs. the other. *
Component specifications sections are featured in each chapter,
offering insight into how components are evaluated and selected
from manufacturers' catalogs. * Chapters on components are designed
to stand-alone and may be covered in any order, so that they
correspond to laboratory ex
