MODULE TITLE FLUID POWER (SYSTEM DESIGNCONCEPTS)
Nominal Duration One Module
Module Code or Number EB 723
Purpose This module aims to allow the students to producea feasibility study for a fluid power system using acombination of hydraulic, pneumatic andPLC/electrical/electronic areas of study.
Relationship toCompetency Standards This module will be modified in line with the
requirements of the National Metals andEngineering Standards when they becomeavailable.
The module contains the knowledge and skillsidentified and agreed by all state/territories. Ithas been developed on the assumption that thesewill be reflected in the Standards.
Prerequisites NM59 Hydraulics 4NM62 Pneumatics 4NM63 Control 3

Delivery This module draws on the calculations and designcarried out in previous hydraulic and pneumaticsubjects.
Instructions will be required in the fields ofdetermining the system specification; advancedcalculations and system control; optimising andsummarising the results.
It is suggested that this subject be carried outimmediately preceding Fluid Power (ComponentSelection and Sizing For Design), and that thedesign project be a combination of the twosubjects.
The design project for this subject will require aspecified system using a combination of hydraulic,pneumatic and PLC/electrical/electronic complexwhich interact with each other and to besufficiently complex to require a detailed analysis.This includes:
High forces and torquesHigh speedsAccurate control requirementsInteraction between some of the functions and the quality of the manufactured product.

A new design project will need to be set yearly. Itis suggested that all participating TAFE collegesagree to a roster for setting the design project forall states each year, to ensure that a nationalstandard is set and adhered to.
The design project will need to cover as wide arange of design criteria as possible, However, itmust be recognised that all of the topics detailedin the outlines cannot be covered in a realisticsystem.
The system will need to address the importantsafety, end user and local environment needs toenable a practical system to be designed.
Learning outcomes On completion of this module the learner will beable to:
Learning Outcome 1 Write a specification for acomplete manufacturing system to enablethe design for the system to be carried out,taking into account all variables which willeffect the design.
Assessment criteria Identify the details of the final product which willeffect the system design.
Identify the customer requirements in terms ofcost, life of machine, safety, type of control anddetails of the proposed location of the system,which need to be considered when designing thesystem.
Conditions
Assessment methods Written summary of parameters which willbe considered during the writing of thespecification.
