Fluid Power
Fluid technical systems are unique regarding their complexity: more components, flexible geometries, non-linear behaviour and different physical requirements pose a great technical challenge for developers. Engineers and scientists trust in ITI simulation solutions to manage this complexity.
For more than 19 years ITI simulation solutions are amongst the most essential tools for the system simulation in Fluid Power – from pre-stage design and development up to product maintenance. Together with our clients in industry and research we set the target to analyze the behaviour of fluid technical systems in a more precise and comprehensive way. Thus, we contribute to the crucial attractiveness and quality of new developments.
