Fundamentals and Introduction to Hydraulic Design - ED
Objectives
At the end of the course, trainees will be able to:
- Convert a specification into a hydraulic diagram.
- Determine the components of a hydraulic diagram by calculation.
Program
Part 1

- Introduction to the study of hydraulic circuits: Standard symbols used in industry – Open and closed circuits.
- Receivers: – Symmetrical subjected to a resisting force (torque) – Symmetrical subjected to a driving force (torque) – Dissymmetrical subjected to a resisting force – Dissymmetrical subjected to a driving force.
- Generation of flow or pressure: Fixed or variable flow generators – Pressure generators – Conclusion.
- Circuit architecture
- Open circuit design.
- Open circuit diagram design.
- Detailed study of closed and semi-closed circuits: Description of a closed circuit – Variant closed circuit diagrams – Filtration of closed circuits – Semi closed circuit.
- Examples of diagrams.

Our testimony
We call on IFC TRITECH for training in electricity and hydraulics, so that our technicians can develop their skills in an agile way. IFC TRITECH also provides us with tailor-made training on our runway equipment, which incorporates specific and complex technologies, both in its training centres and on our premises.
All these factors have made IFC TRITECH the preferred training organisation for Air France's ramp equipment division for over 20 years!
For more than 10 years, we have trusted the IFC TRITECH group with our training needs. Their skilled trainers are passionate about their work, which is reflected in the quality of their training courses. Thanks to them, our Loxam technicians develop their knowledge and performance in the field.
For over 20 years, IFC and TRITECH have been the benchmark in the field of hydraulics and lubrication training.
I have met passionate trainers who have enabled me to develop my skills in these areas.
Together with them, we have developed training courses for my employees in the maintenance of unique and complex tools.
