HYDAC Australia offers a comprehensive range of fluid power training options tailored to meet the needs of various industries. As a certified regional training centre for the Asia-Pacific region, HYDAC provides an extensive array of training programs that include traditional face-to-face courses, online learning, and innovative mixed reality training that incorporates both virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR).
Expanding Traditional Face-to-Face Training
HYDAC has a strong history of delivering face-to-face training courses designed to build foundational and advanced knowledge in hydraulics. These courses include Basic Hydraulics, Maintain Hydraulics Systems, and Electro-Hydraulic Control Systems. Each course carries HYDAC certification, signifying international recognition and industry relevance. These face-to-face programs have been expanded to keep up with industry demands and educational needs. This ensures that participants gain hands-on experience and direct interaction with experienced trainers, fostering a deeper understanding of fluid power systems.
Breaking Barriers with Online Training
Recognising the necessity for accessible training, HYDAC developed an online training platform called FLO (Fluid power Learning Online). This platform allows participants to engage in learning from any location, providing flexibility and convenience. The online courses cover a broad spectrum of topics, including hydraulic safety, fundamental hydraulic principles, lubricants and their properties, hydraulic schematics, hydraulic pumps, pressure control valves, directional control valves, flow control, and load holding valves. This transition to online learning ensures that both HYDAC employees and external participants can continue their professional development without geographical limitations, making high-quality education accessible to a wider audience.
Innovative Mixed Reality Training
HYDAC is at the forefront of integrating mixed reality into its training programs. Mixed Reality training combines VR and AR to create an immersive and interactive learning environment. This innovative approach allows for on-demand, instructor-guided, and infield maintenance training, making it possible to conduct training safely and effectively from anywhere in the world. The MR training was developed in collaboration with Deakin University, showcasing HYDAC's commitment to advancing educational technology. By using Mixed Reality, HYDAC enables technicians to practice complex procedures in a controlled, virtual environment, reducing the risk of errors in real-world applications.
Customised Training Solutions
HYDAC's flexibility extends to offering customised training solutions tailored to specific company needs. These bespoke programs can range from bringing equipment to HYDAC's facilities in Melbourne to conducting on-site training sessions. Notable clients, such as AGCO, BHP, Rio Tinto, and Swinburne University of Technology, have benefitted from HYDAC's tailored training programs, which often include unique VR components developed to enhance learning and operational efficiency. These customised solutions ensure that training is directly relevant to the specific machinery and processes used by each client, maximising the effectiveness of the training.
TTC Academy and Beyond
In addition to HYDAC's extensive training offerings, the company also provides training through the TTControl’s TTC Academy. This joint venture between TTTech and HYDAC International delivers seminars that cover the basics of TTControl products, complete with programming examples using specialised training kits. The TTC Academy ensures that participants are well-versed in the latest control technologies, enhancing their ability to implement advanced solutions in their operations.
Supporting Apprenticeships and Professional Growth
HYDAC supports apprenticeships and graduate programs, fostering the development of the next generation of fluid power experts. These initiatives equip participants with the skills and knowledge necessary to excel in the industry.
