Students possess, subject-specific for hydraulic and pneumatic drives, advanced knowledge and skills regarding regulated open and closed circuits of hydraulic and pneumatic systems. They have a profound knowledge of the uses of proportional and servo technology. They understand the correlation of electro-hydraulic and electro-pneumatic drives and controllers. The students possess the competence to design circuit diagrams and to calculate machines. They are able to analyse circuit diagrams, recognize and eliminate errors.

Students also have a deep understanding of classic control circuits and their practice-relevant extensions and methods of analysis and their time-discrete realisation. They are familiar with modern frequency range methods and advanced methods of control technology.

Structure and modes of operation of pumps and motors and their regulation; hydraulic transformers or energy saving; discussion of open and closed circuits with circuit diagrams; discussion of energy-efficient drives without throttles; discussion of oscillating and linear motors; special constructs for automation; telescopic cylinders – single- double-acting and with a constant process rate; basics of proportional and servo technology; differences and use of drives and regulators; discussions of problems of controlling differential cylinders with proportional valves; design of circuit diagrams;  detecting and discussion of faulty drives; laying and calculating of machines; discussion of pneumatic sequence control systems with isolation of the control circuit and cyclic chain control with the help of circuit plans;

Continuous assessment (based on regular written and/or oral contribution by participants).
