GEI Hydraulics
Our mission at G.E.I. Fluid Power is to provide a cost efficient, timely, and competent service to keep your plant running smoothly and efficiently.
We offer a wide variety of classes to serve your individual needs. We can come in and pretest your employees to see what pre class knowledge they have so that we can start them at the right level.
The progressions of classes in hydraulics are as follows. : Basic1, Basic2, Advanced1, Advanced2, Cartridge valve, Proportional valve, MRS (maintaining repairing and servicing) of equipment, Circuit reading.
We can also set up a class for your individual needs. For instance if you need a class on fittings and pipe threads we can set up a course for just that and specialize it to the fittings and pipe threads that you use in your plant. Below is a outline of the different things that are covered in our classes.
