A tutorial on gauges

Image
Here is a link http://www.fluidpowerworld.com/what-are-gauges/ to some great content about hydraulic gauges.  This can be found on FluidPowerWorld.com   along with a lot of other great fluid power content. Check us out frequently to stay informed on fluid power technology, the components, and applications.  We have a great editorial team including Michael Santora, who is new to our team and is the author of this content on gauges.

Attention Fluid Power Nation

Give it a listen ...

At WTWH Media we surround the engineer with information.  We have great print, web, e-mail, and video content for our audience.  We also have podcasts to share valuable information and insights with our engineering readers.  I invite your to listen to our latest Technology Tuesdays podcast : This program is a conversation between our Editorial Director, Paul Heney, and Jeff Herrin, VP of R&D at Danfoss Power Solutions.  These somewhat informal discussions reveal insights about the state of fluid power technology that are usually not found in more formal text or digital media. We will continue to serve this kind of content to our audience members who can download and listen at their convenience.  I hope that you will give it a listen.

Fluid Power Handbook

What if you had a handbook that described the many components that make up a fluid power system?  What if each tutorial explained how various components work and why engineers select them? Well, in a few days, that will happen as we publish our 2015 Fluid Power Handbook from Fluid Power World.  If you would like to receive a copy, let me know.   If you would like to subscribe to Fluid Power World so that you won't miss such important information, click here.   It will be free to all who qualify by using fluid power technology. We still have three great issues planned for the rest of 2015, so subscribe today.  If your company makes and sells fluid power components, consider sending us your press releases and success stories for publication so that others can learn from your success. We are very happy to be a part of the fluid power community!

Happy Fluid Power Professionals Day

See us on Facebook

Fluid Power World has an official Facebook page and here is a link   https://www.facebook.com/FluidPowerWorld?fref=ts I also have a fluid power Facebook page and here is a link to that  https://www.facebook.com/pages/Michael-Ference-Fluid-Power-News-Comments/562381453838583 They are both fully dedicated to fluid power information.  In invite you to “like” both of them.

Fluid power can be fun

Learning about fluid power systems and the machinery that they power can be fun.  Here is proof I have had the opportunity to see some really interesting systems up close.  This particular photo shows a control system for a snow plow/salt spreader.  It is more complicated that you think when you see the snow plow going down the street. To cover the fluid power industry as an editor or even a sales representative, it really helps if you love the industry.  I am fascinated by fluid power technology and continue to learn just about every day.

Hey ... Fluid Power Companies

Let us help you to make the second half great! From all indications, 2016 should be a continuing recovery year for fluid power.  The forecast that I heard was for positive growth for the year.  With that being said, fluid power component sellers should be gearing up for growth. Fluid Power World  can help your company get ready for expansion.  We have three great print issues and a very robust digital network, ready to find new customers and prospects for your company. Here is what we have in store: August Offshore and Marine Applications Sealing Innovations Pneumatic Cylinders Steel/Automotive Machinery Closing Date:  July 15, 2015 October Mobile Hydraulics in Construction Applications Pneumatics in Medical Applications Reliability in Industrial Applications Focus on Hydraulic Motors Closing Date:  September 15, 2015 December Mobile Hydraulics in Agricultural Applications Pneumatics in Packaging Applications Efficiency in Industrial H

A variety of fluid power topics - in August

Image
At Fluid Power World , we look at all aspects of fluid power systems and all of the components involved to make them work.   The best way to design, maintain, and operate an efficient and productive machine or vehicle is by understanding the whole system from tank to actuator or, in the case of pneumatic systems, from compressor to actuator. In our August issue, we will feature four very important and relevant topics for fluid power.   First, we will feature an article on the Marine and Offshore Industry.   Our technology continues to play a vital role in the energy markets both offshore and onshore.   We will also review the contributions of hydraulics to work boats and show how and where fluid power is the best design choice. For our component spotlight, we will take a look at fluid power seals and sealing devices.This important component is essential to keeping hydraulic and pneumatic systems as leak free as possible.   We continue to see innovation in the use of comp
