Hydraulics is where the machine’s force actually comes from. 200 k N of propulsion, sixdegrees of steering freedom and a 9.5 k Nm cutting head all trace back to decisions made inthis role. You will work closely with both the mechanical and the controls side, since a steeringloop is only as good as the valve responding to it. What you will do Design and document the hydraulic schematic for the complete machine Size pumps, valves, accumulators and lines against the duty cycle Specify and integrate the hydraulic power unit at the launch area Commission the system and diagnose faults during testing Define maintenance and safety procedures for high-pressure operation What you bring Studying mechanical engineering or mechatronics Foundation in fluid power — coursework or practical experience both count Methodical approach to commissioning and fault-finding Respect for the failure modes of high-pressure systems
