Along with its lineup of education sessions, IFPE 2020 will be hosting college course styled speaker sessions at the show in March. These hands-on sessions will help attendees get the most out of their IFPE experience by providing information critical to the success of companies as the industry continues to expand and develop.

“IFPE education is always a fantastic experience for the attendees, but with the addition of the college course sessions, it becomes a vitally important aspect to the show,” says Dr. Medhat Khalil from the Milwaukee School of Engineering (MSOE). “This added dimension of fluid power education will benefit the attendees with the broad range of crucial information it provides.” IFPE will be located in South Hall 3 of the Las Vegas Convention Center.IFPE will be located in South Hall 3 of the Las Vegas Convention Center.Association of Equipment Manufacturers

Four half-day IFPE “college-level courses” will emphasize hands-on technical knowledge on the effective use of hydraulics in mobile equipment:

  1. fundamentals of hydraulic systems 101
  2. fundamentals of hydraulic systems 201
  3. hydraulic fluid properties, efficiency and contamination control
  4. digital design.

The above sessions will explore fundamental concepts such as cutting-edge fluid power technology, the future of machine controls and A.I., the power of IoT and how to correctly harvest it, how hydraulic fluids affect machine performance, clean hydraulic assembly procedures and so much more. The information being presented at these interactive sessions makes IFPE 2020 an incredibly valuable experience, just as it was in 2017.

"The IFPE show is truly a one stop shop for hydraulic education and technology,” says Ralph M. of JBT Aerotech. “This is a unique show that gives tools to fluid power engineers to design efficient value oriented hydraulic systems.  This is a priceless event."

IFPE focuses on the latest innovations, product advances and expert insights to fully equip engineers and others involved in the design and manufacturing process to increase efficiency, contain costs and improve the performance of their hydraulic and pneumatic systems and applications.
