Open test field - Discover modern hydraulic and pneumatic drives

LNDW Posting Querformat © TU Dresden

How precisely can you control our excavator arm?

With how much force can you compete against a hydraulic cylinder in a tug-of-war?

How fast are you at controlling the pneumatic positioning system?

How loud can you scream in our sound measurement room?

We'll show you what modern hydraulic and pneumatic drives are capable of and you'll try out for yourself what you can achieve. At our test walls you can build your own hydraulic drive. An automated excavator arm draws pictures on a whiteboard and a pneumatic gripper moves materials quickly and precisely. At our other test benches, we show the results of current research and explain how hydraulics and pneumatics work.
