In an era where machines and systems dominate industry, understanding hydraulics is no longer a luxury – it’s a necessity. The National Fluid Power Institute (NFPI) recognizes this, offering top-tier hydraulic training programs designed to prevent downtime, promote safety, and maintain profitable operations.
Mellott understands the importance of training to promote safety and stay ahead of the game in the ever changing aggregate industry.
Dave Coleman, Technical Trainer for Mellott said, “After speaking with the trainees, it’s clear that everyone, from newer technicians to senior ones, are benefiting from the National Fluid Power Institute’s Hydraulic Training. The institute covers a wide range of topics including hydraulic safety, basics, and technical troubleshooting, and trainees appreciate the balanced mix of classroom and hands-on test panel training.”
Hands-On Learning for Real-World Challenges
NFPI’s approach emphasizes hands-on training, live-online video training, and e-learning. Their Troubleshooting Hydraulics course is a prime example, providing students with the practical skills needed to interpret hydraulic schematics, implement safe work practices, and understand how fluids must be positively confined throughout entire systems (NTT Training).
Certification and Career Advancement
For those seeking certification, NFPI’s training aligns with International Fluid Power Society (IFPS) standards. IFPS offers various technician certifications, and NFPI’s courses can help prepare participants for these exams. Additionally, the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) recognizes the value of NFPI’s training in advancing careers within the fluid power industry.
Expanding Opportunities Through Partnerships
NFPI’s impact extends beyond their own programs. They partner with institutions like Angelina College, which offers strong fluid power programs, including fluid power system design, basic hydraulics, pneumatics, and advanced courses. These partnerships ensure students have access to a well-rounded education and a wide range of specializations.
