ROBA62A
Module 62A: Fluid Power A (Optional)
Outcome
Construct a mechanical device that incorporates principles of fluid power systems.
Indicators
(a) Describe how hydraulic or pneumatic pressure can be used to create a mechanical advantage in a simple mechanical device such as a hydraulic lift or pneumatic arm.
(b) Design, construct, and evaluate a prototype of a device that models the operation of a fluid power system.
(c) Identify the advantages and disadvantages (e.g., strength, speed, fluid supply and leaks) of a fluid power system.
(d) Identify common applications (e.g. braking systems, lifting systems and launching systems) of fluid power systems.
