Engineering Services

The key to developing a reliable, available and maintainablefluid power system is to make it an integral part of theengineering process, and to eliminate failures and failuremodes through identification, classification, analysis andremoval or mitigation. When developing fluid power systems, itis imperative to select the right activities and to conduct thoseactivities at the right time. The engineering faculty and staff atFPI are experts in fluid power, and can help you develop highlyreliable, available and maintainable fluid power systems andcomponents. We can assist in developing your fluid powerapplication from a simple design to an efficient and reliablehydraulic or pneumatic system.

Tribology Services

The FPI has been a leader in contamination analysis andfiltration technology for decades. In the 1980s, FPI pioneeredthe use of automatic particle counters in hydraulic fluidanalysis. In the 1990s, FPI pioneered the development ofsurgically clean fluids for initial-fill applications. In the 2000s,FPI was the very first to use Atomic Force Microscopy in wearparticle analysis. FPI’s role as a practitioner and educator inthese areas has truly advanced the fluid power industry. Ourcurrent research thrust incorporates the study andformulation of energy-efficient hydraulic fluids—an endeavorfunded by a grant from the National Science Foundation andindustry partners.

Many of the world’s largest equipment manufacturers use FPIto test new hoses, tubes, cylinders, coolers, reservoirs, pumps,bearings and valve assemblies to determine the type and sizeof manufacturing contamination, left in the component asreceived by the customer. Through the use of advanceddiagnostic methods such as ferrography, atomic forcemicroscopy, stereomicroscopy and laser particle imaging, earlydetection and root-cause analysis are possible.

The Center for Compact and Efficient FluidPower (CCEFP) is a National ScienceFoundation (NSF) Engineering ResearchCenter, funded for a five-year period with$17.5 million from NSF, $3.5 million inmembership dues from participatingcompanies, and $3 million fromparticipating universities.

Our Center is a network of researchers,educators, and industry working togetherto transform the fluid power industry—how it is studied, applied and taught. Fluidpower is used in a wide range ofindustries, including manufacturing,transportation, aerospace, construction,agriculture and medical devices. Nearly allU.S. manufacturing plants rely on fluidpower in their production of goods.

The work of the Center will have profoundsocietal impact, bringing dramatic changeto fluid power applications now found in abroad spectrum of industries. Examples ofinnovative technology that will result fromCenter research include devices thatimprove mobility for the ailing and elderly,autonomous rescue and service robotsand fluid-powered portable hand tools.

Research The CCEFP has four research goals: todramatically improve the energyefficiency of fluid power in currentapplications; to improve the efficiency oftransportation by developing fuel efficienthydraulic hybrid vehicles; to develop un-tethered portable human-scale fluid powerdevices; and to make fluid power clean,quiet, safe and easy to use. The researchneeded to realize these goals is beingconducted in three coordinated thrustareas and demonstrated in five test beds.Thrust areas include Thrust 1 - Efficiency,Thrust 2 - Compactness, and Thrust 3 -Effectiveness. Center research isdemonstrated in five test beds: anexcavator, sUV (small Urban Vehicle),

compactrescue crawler, fluidpower-assisted portable handtools, and fluid power-assistedorthoses.

EducationThe Center's network and research enablethe development and delivery ofinnovative education and outreachprograms relevant to fluid power tomiddle and high school students,undergraduate and graduate students,engineers, industry practitioners, and thegeneral public. Some highlights: � Working with Project Lead The Way to

add fluid power content to PLTW'sengineering curriculum for middle andhigh schools, now taught nationwide.

� Revising undergraduate curriculum soall mechanical engineers understandfluid power.

� Developing specialized fluid powercourses for graduate and advancedundergraduate students.

� Building an industrial internshipprogram for undergraduate andgraduate students.

� Collaborating with the Science Museumof Minnesota in the development ofpermanent and traveling fluid powerexhibits.

� Producing a documentary on fluidpower, in conjunction with Twin CitiesPublic Television.

� Working with tribal colleges inMinnesota and Wisconsin to promoteengineering among Native Americanstudents and to provide mentoringservices.

Industrial Collaboration/TechnologyTransferMore than 60 fluid power manufacturers,distributors, and suppliers have becomesupporting members of the Center—anunprecedented demonstration of industrysupport. In addition, many of thesecompanies contribute equipment andprovide project champions who activelywork with universities on project and testbed research.

GROHMANN MUSEUM

While your on campus, visit the Grohmann Museum, home to the world’smost comprehensive art collection dedicated to the evolution of humanwork. The museum has three floors of galleries where the art collection isdisplayed, as well as a spectacular rooftop sculpture garden.

The collection comprises more than 800 paintings and sculptures from 1580to the present. They reflect a variety of artistic styles and subjects thatdocument the evolution of organized work. The museum also presentsthree to four special exhibitions per year.

The museum is named in honor of Dr. Eckhart Grohmann, an MSOE Regent,Milwaukee businessman and avid art collector who donated his collectionto MSOE in 2001 and subsequently the funds to purchase, renovate andoperate the museum.
