The Textbook

Prior to attending the Troubleshooting In-Plant Hydraulics course, it is recommended that technicians attend our Maintenance Hydraulic Troubleshooting workshop. 

 

 To determine if your maintenance personnel need our first session, have them take our Online Basic Hydraulics Quiz.

 

Our Troubleshooting In-Plant Hydraulics Workshops are designed and taught on the actual systems at your plant.  

First, all of the systems you choose to be customized are redrawn from the original prints.  Shop prints are fine for certain applications, but aren't really designed for troubleshooting.  

The troubleshooting schematics produced by GPM show the machine in various stages of operation, integrating the electrical control with the hydraulic flow. 

 A commentary is written describing the characteristics, operation and troubleshooting of each component.  All of this information is compiled into a textbook that the student gets to keep as reference material.


The Class

The classroom training is unlike any other maintenance instruction the student has ever attended.  Intense, practical training delivered by an experienced instructor who is able to provide real life examples and specific troubleshooting techniques keeps the class interesting and informative.  In addition to classroom lecture, approximately half the time will be spent providing hands-on instruction out in the facility on the very equipment the students are familiar with.  At the conclusion of the class, the student will understand the in plant systems and know what troubleshooting and preventive maintenance checks to make on the machines.

The eBook 

Once the in-plant troubleshooting program has been completed, the customer can order their customized hydraulic manual to be converted into an eBook in pdf format. This is a fully searchable CD that contains each customers colorized hydraulic schematic flow charts, electrical cycles and complete component description. 

This eBook can be downloaded onto a network, control room computer, palm top, lap top, office computer and home computer for troubleshooting the in-plant systems.

Not only do the ones who attended have a better understanding of our hydraulics, they know how to troubleshoot problems, have an excellent set of books on the systems, and learned a systematic troubleshooting procedure that can be applied to most maintenance problems, hydraulic or otherwise.

This class received the highest reviews of all maintenance classes conducted.  We have already seen the material learned put into practice by maintenance personnel who are becoming troubleshooters and not just part changers.

"The training techniques developed by GPM Hydraulic Consulting focuses on both the technical and hands-on skills necessary to troubleshoot and repair complex hydraulic components. Because the training is plant specific, not generic, our maintenance associates have reduced the amount of costly unscheduled downtime and stress associated with these unwanted events."

Al and Jack,

     I appreciate your help in getting our Winder back on line.  We were down to two reel spools and would have had to shut down at a cost of $10k per hour.  The manuals you made up for us were a help, and Jack’s expertise had our problem solved in less than 30 minutes.  For future help, you could have an emergency number available on your web site.  We were headed in the right direction with the help of the diagrams and training you provided us with.  Jack, I hated to get you out of bed and drive down, but this could have cost us a tremendous amount of money.  Thanks again for the help.
