  • FPTI Hydraulics Training System

    The MF102-H Hydraulic Training System is FPTI’s flagship “foundation-building” trainer engineered to help learners truly understand hydraulics by connecting theory to hands-on application. Designed by one of the industry’s most respected hydraulic educators, the MF102-H takes learners from the basics of Pascal’s Law and pressure differentials to complex circuit building using real industrial components. Every activity reinforces prior learning, ensuring exceptional retention and skill development.

    With six directional control valves, industry-standard port identification, a pressure-compensated axial piston pump, and a complete suite of cylinders, flow meters, gauges, and controls, the MF102-H allows students to build an almost unlimited variety of circuits. Its plug-and-play Flex-Plate system expands its capabilities even further, allowing instructors to teach any pump or valve type, even those not physically mounted on the trainer. Built for decades of classroom service, the MF102-H remains one of the most complete and instructionally powerful hydraulic training systems ever developed.

    The hydraulics trainer comes in either single- or double-sided configurations and comes complete with instructional materials for teaching industrial hydraulics.

     

  • MF102 Hydraulics Trainer + Troubleshooting

    We are proud to bring this incredible hydraulics training system to schools whereby students can get invaluable hands-on training in the fundamentals of Hydraulics, Hydraulics Safety, Advanced Hydraulics, and now the added training benefit of Troubleshooting capabilities.

    The MF102-H-TS includes 40-hours of possible training on the base model PLUS an additional 40-hours of training in troubleshooting possible. Unparalleled in terms of craftsmanship and curriculum, this trainer is proudly designed and built in the USA.

    Available Single-Sided or Double-Sided

     

  • Hydrostatic Transmission + Driving Simulator

    The MF500-HT-TSE is an instructor’s “dream-come-true” with respect to teaching state-of-the-art, electronically-controlled hydrostatic transmission systems – hands-on. It can even be driven as if it were on a construction site,  in real-time!

    Driving a skid-steer loader around a construction site and operating the MF500-HT-TSE in the lab amounts to the same thing – without the hazards!

    Designed for instructors who want to teach hydrostatic transmission and steering systems with the same components found in popular front-end loaders but without the safety hazards and physical limitations of operating a loaded, faulty skidsteer in a shop full of students.

    Teach basic concepts to advanced applications + troubleshooting in a classroom-friendly manner where students can gather around to see real-time symptoms of faults as you drive the simulator through a variety of scenarios.

  • Hydraulic Cylinder Training System

    The MF400-HCTS Hydraulic Cylinder Rebuild Trainer is designed to help instructors teach and students learn how to safely and correctly perform the following skills:

    • Overhaul a hydraulic cylinder.
    • Identify and use the tools needed to overhaul a hydraulic cylinder.
    • Inspect the components in a hydraulic cylinder to determine the root cause of a failure.
    • Replace piston and gland seals.
    • Test a hydraulic cylinder.
    • Air bleed a hydraulic cylinder.

    This hands-on trainer is designed to teach learners how to SAFELY disassemble, inspect, reseal, assemble, and test hydraulic cylinders. It is designed to honor the technicians who have been seriously injured or killed due to improper and lack of training surrounding hydraulic cylinder repair.

  • Industrial / Mobile Accumulator with Differential Pressure Unloading Valve

    The MF100-ACC module is an add-on for the MF-102 Hydraulic Training Systems and is designed to help instructors teach and students learn accumulators, accumulator applications, how to safely and correctly perform accumulator gas charging procedures, and applications for differential pressure unloading valves.

    The MF100-ACC consists of the following components:

    1. Accumulator
    2. Differential pressure unloading valve
    3. Pressure gauge
    4. Stored energy safety bleed-off valve
    5. Gas charging gauge and hose assembly
    6. Gas bottle pressure regulator recommended
  • Logic Element with Diagnostic Capability

    There are some things that no matter how much you try to explain, or how many graphics you use, some students just don’t get it. One of those things has got to be logic valves.

    Have you ever asked yourself, “if only I had a fully functional, four logic valve that was completely transparent”? Well, now you do!

    Introducing the easy to explain, and just as easy to learn, plug-and-play logic valve module with auto-fault and troubleshooting capability: the MF100-LE-TS. A plug-and-play add-on for the MF-102 Series Hydraulic Training Systems.

  • 3-Section Mobile Directional Control Valve

    The MF100-MDCV is an actual directional valve assembly that is commonly used on machinery such as front-end loaders and forklifts.

    With the MF100-MDCV-TS students will learn to pressure/leak test individual sections with the objective of determining, with pinpoint precision, the condition of a given port.

    A plug-and-play add-on for the MF-102 Series Hydraulic Training Systems.

  • FPTI Accumulator with Differential Pressure Unloading Valve Module

    The MF100-ACC module is designed to help instructors teach and students learn accumulators, accumulator applications, how to safely and correctly perform accumulator gas charging procedures, and applications for differential pressure unloading valves.

    The MF100-ACC is designed to plug into the side of the MF-102 series hydraulic training systems, further building upon the robust training outcomes of the popular industrial hydraulics trainers.

  • Proportional Directional / Flow Control Valve

    Combined with the components on the MF102 series training systems, the Proportional Directional/Flow Control Valve Module will allow instructors to teach, and students to learn, all facets of Proportional Directional/Flow Control Valve operation and circuit application, and amplifier parameter adjustment.

    The MF100-PDCV module consists of the following components:

    1. Two-position, 4-way, proportional solenoid controlled closed-center directional/flow control valve.

  • Steering Valve (Orbitrol)

    We wholeheartedly agree that the only way to teach and learn hydraulic steering systems with a measurable degree of success is to park a front-end loader in the classroom – hardly practical due to important things like safety, space, and cost.

    You can always depend on the professionals at FPTI™ to develop a safe and practical alternative. Introducing the MF100-OSV – a fully-functional, plug-and-play, hydraulic steering system that is absolutely identical, in every respect, to the type found on all articulated machines such as front-end loaders and off-highway trucks.

    The “TS” model makes it possible to generate the identical wear-related faults steering components experience in the real world for a real world learning experience.
