1.Name at least four applications of hydraulic systems (a) (b) (c) (d) BACKHOE FORKLIFT MATERIAL HANDLING AND ROBOTIC SYSTEM LIFT TABLES-Vehicle loading and docking operations

2.Name 3 advantages of hydraulic sytems (a) Convenient power transfer - Few moving parts - low losses over long distances (b) Flexibility - Distribute force in multiple directions - Safe and reliable for many uses (c) Variable speed control - quick response (linear and rotary) 3.For what purpose are pressure relief valve used? - used in several places in hydraulic machinery; on the return circuit to maintain a small amount of pressure for brakes, pilot lines, etc... On hydraulic cylinders, to prevent overloading and hydraulic line/seal rupture. 4. What is purpose of directional control valves? - To allow fluid flow into different paths from one or more sources. - usually consist of a spool inside a cylinder which is mechanically or electrically controlled. 5. What is purpose of hydraulic motor? a mechanical actuator that converts hydraulic pressure and flow into torque and displacement (rotation).

6. What are diffrence between the hydraulic motor and the hydraulic pump? Hydraulic motor - used to supplies fluid. Hydraulic pump - used to pump fluid. 7. Why end cushions are used in cylinders? Smooth change of velocity. have restriction leading to 'hydraulic shock' less restriction leading to mechanical shock . hydraulic noise ( turbulence). Mechanical Noise.
