Lift hydraulics
From theory to
practice
Welcome to Bucher Hydraulics
"The iValve wins through! "
The new-generation iValve lift control valve is gaining
recognition: already, more than 5000 systems have been
installed, covering more than 150 customers.
Many customers have switched to the iValve because of these
decisive advantages:
•Installation time reduced by 70 %
•Energy savings of 30 %
•First-class travel characteristics and
built-in A3 safety valve
•Integral pressure switch, hand pump and
emergency-lowering facility
New course in the training program
The newly developed course 'The new-generation iValve'
(Course 200) gives your technicians all the applicationinformation – the theory as well as the practice – they need
for new installations, service and maintenance. Using our
mobile training unit, trainees can get hands-on practice and
experience the effects 'live'.
Again and again, customers confirm that our training courses
make a direct contribution to image gains and cost savings.
As a result, some customers have already sent their staff to
our courses several times.
Contact us directly about training courses on your own
premises.

Focus on hands-on training
Training using our Training Vehicle (trailer)
We attach great importance to the practical sessions. Thanks
to our Training Vehicle you have the chance to take matters
into your own hands after the theoretical part. We offer you the
challenge to set parameters on our lift simulator and learn about
their influence. Practice what you have just
learned and improve the implementation
with the help of our expert!
The Training Vehicle at your site
If you plan to train your personnel in house, the Training Vehicle
can come to you.
Only 3 parking spaces, 5 m free height (for the lift-cylinder simulator) and a 3-phase 16 A power connection (400 V) is necessary.
