As hydraulic systems grow more complex and industry knowledge thins, Motion is investing in structured training to deliver specialised advice, smarter solutions, and measurable cost value to customers across Australia and New Zealand.
Hydraulics is no longer just about hoses, pumps and cylinders. Across Australia and New Zealand, systems are becoming more automated, integrated, and reliant on electronic controls. At the same time, the traditional pipeline of mechanically trained tradespeople has narrowed dramatically.
For Fellipe Ramos, category manager – fluid control systems Asia Pacific at Motion, that shift makes structured training essential.
“Hydraulic systems are far more advanced than they used to be,” Ramos said. “They now integrate electronics, sensors, and control systems, so they’re more complex and more critical to operations. Ongoing, structured training ensures our teams stay ahead of that complexity and can confidently support modern systems – not just traditional hydraulic components.”
Customers are also expecting more from suppliers.
“Customers expect more than just a good relationship,” Ramos said. “They want trusted advisers – people who understand products and how everything works together. They expect advanced troubleshooting, application support and guidance on the most efficient and cost-effective solution.”
