Fluid PowerTrainingFluid power training based on current industry practices

In the past decade, the fluid power industry has experienced a

high level of change with the fast progression of technology and

modern applications.

This has resulted in difficulties for traditional fluid power training

organisations in staying current regarding industry practices,

component knowledge and qualified resources.

This lag, combined with the growing problem of many

experienced hydraulic experts retiring, or approaching

retirement age, has resulted in a knowledge gap in the fluid

power industry. A gap that Custom Fluid Power Training can

now successfully fill.

Custom Fluidpower, one of the largest hydraulics, pneumatics

and electronics solution providers in Australia, has put our

hundreds of hours of accumulated knowledge towards

developing training packages that meet current industry

best practice. Our training packages are aligned to national

standards, are MDG41 compliant and will be delivered through

our Registered Training Organisation Division – Custom Fluid

Power Training.

With the RTO administration based in Brisbane QLD, Hydraulic

Simulators located in Newcastle NSW, and trainers located

Australia wide, Custom Fluid Power Training can provide

training on a national basis.

CUSTOMFLUID POWER TRAINING

BLENDED

Custom Fluid Power Training is able to develop

courses offering blended delivery methods such

as online and face to face to meet your specific

requirements.

DISTANCE LEARNING

Currently, distance learning is only available

from Custom Fluid Power Training for the RPL of

Certificate IV in Engineering – (Fluid Power) course.

However, practical assessment for this course still

has to be undertaken on a face to face basis.

E-LEARNING

Custom Fluid Power Training’s online portal enables

self-paced online training and will expand over time

to include fluid power courses on a wide range of

topics. E-learning is available at a company wide

and individual level.

FACE TO FACE

Custom Fluid Power Training’s face to face

courses are practical and are designed around the

workplace, relating to jobs that are performed on a

daily basis, with assessment of competency based

on performance of actual tasks and underpinned by

knowledge ensuring the task is completed to meet

the relevant standards. We can train your people

on-site and supply all training materials - you simply

provide a workshop and training room; or, you can

attend a training session hosted by us and make use

of our hydraulic simulators for hands on training.

RECOGNISED PRIOR LEARNING

Custom Fluid Power Training conducts a process

that recognises the skills and knowledge that has

been acquired through the course of life, vocational

transitions, formal or informal training and education,

and awards course accreditation based on this.

TRAINING METHODS

Custom Fluid Power Training provides a practical training experience through the use of our hydraulic

simulator units.

These rigs use current fluid power technology, including cartridge valve technology, ensuring that trainees

receive practical experience on current industry equipment.

This hands on approach to learning ensures trainees will learn faster, troubleshoot fluid power problems

quicker, and increase their confidence working on real systems.

HANDS ON TRAINING WITH HYDRAULIC SIMULATOR UNITS

Custom Fluid Power Training can customise

a training plan to meet specific needs

throughout Australia (and PNG), whether

product, application, industry or company

specific.

We can work with you to design a training

package relating to a specific piece of

equipment (operation and/or maintenance),

procedure, or identified knowledge gap, and

conduct the training on-site.

Simply contact us to discuss your

requirements.

CUSTOM TRAINING

If you are looking to increase safety during maintenance and operation of hydraulic or pneumatic equipment

by educating your employees about fluid power then training is essential. Introduction to Fluid Power Course

is suitable for fitters or engineers that have no or limited fluid power experience.

Throughout this course, participants will gain a greater understanding of the basic theories and operations of

fluid power systems used in industry today and safety issues relating to them.

The duration of the face to face course is two days and is best for groups of eight to ten people. If the

training is conducted at the customer’s site, course materials are supplied while the customer provides

a workshop and training room. If the trainee attends a Custom Fluid Power Training’s location, course

materials are supplied and hydraulic simulator units are used.

Featured Course

Hydraulics 1.0 (Face to Face)

The course builds on the foundational knowledge

from the Introduction to Fluid Power course. This

unit is designed to support the learners’ needs

in understanding the principles of how hydraulic

components operate, as well as being introduced to

their representative schematic symbols and how to

identify them.

There will be practical exercises to complete to

reinforce the underpinning knowledge. With the

incorporation of hydraulic simulator units in the

course, trainees gain valuable current product and

system information and practical experience.

Course content includes:

• Shut down isolate

• Fluid power principles

• Pump fundamentals

• Gear pump

• Vane pump

• Piston pump

• Directional control valves

• Pressure valves

• Flow controls

• Actuators

• Hydraulic cylinder inspection

• Accumulators

• Reservoir fluids

• Filters

• Hydraulic symbols

• Formulas

The Hydraulics 1.0 course is aligned to MEM05 units of competency 18.11C shut down and isolate

machines/equipment and 18.20B maintain hydraulic system components.
