FluidSIM Hydraulics is a teaching tool for simulating hydraulics basics and runs using Microsoft Windows. It can be used in combination with the Festo Didactic GmbH&Co.KG training hardware, but also independently.
FluidSIM is a comprehensive software for the creation, simulation, instruction and study of electropneumatic, electrohydraulic, digital and electronic circuits. All of the programme functions interact smoothly, combining different media forms and sources of knowledge in an easily accessible fashion. FluidSIM unites an intuitive circuit diagram editor with detailed descriptions of all components, component photos, sectional view animations and video sequences.
As a result FluidSIM is perfect not only for use in lessons but also for the preparation thereof and as a self-study programme. Professionals also get their money's worth: The new simulation core need not fear a comparison with more expensive special programmes.
Despite complex physical models and precise mathematical procedures simulation is amazingly fast. FluidSIM also provides a whole range of possibilities for communication with other software via OPC and thanks to the support of Festo EasyPorts a link up to real hardware is also possible.
