Training on Pneumatics and Hydraulics in Automation
Pneumatics and Hydraulics in Automation Training for Electronics and Instrumentation Engineers
(Training + Skill Assessment + Certification + Project)
Overview
The Pneumatics and Hydraulics in Automation Training is designed to provide Electronics and Instrumentation engineers with practical knowledge and hands-on skills to design, operate, and maintain pneumatic and hydraulic systems used in industrial automation. The course covers actuators, valves, compressors, pumps, sensors, control circuits, and integration with automation platforms.
Engineers with practical experience but without formal certification can undergo a skill assessment to identify gaps in their understanding of pneumatics and hydraulics. Targeted training is provided to address weak areas. Participants receive certification and project documentation upon completion. Fresh graduates gain practical exposure to automation systems used in manufacturing, process, and industrial plants.
Why Skill Assessment Is Important
Skill assessment ensures participants are evaluated for:
Understanding of pneumatic and hydraulic system components and functions
Proficiency in designing and troubleshooting pneumatic and hydraulic circuits
Ability to integrate actuators and sensors with control systems
