PTDA Power Transmission Handbook and DVD Series



For years the industrial community has relied on one main source to train its people with regard to the mechanical principles and repair and maintenance of a range of basic equipment components.

The Power Transmission Distributors Association's Power Transmission Handbook is still today perhaps the most comprehensive and insightful publication known to the marketplace. Long considered the "bible" of the PT/MC industry, the Handbook has been updated and revised to include three new chapters, plus new information and illustrations.

PTDA now expands the learning experience by updating the Power Transmission Product Training DVD Series, developed specifically to complement the latest edition of the handbook and workbook. This visual-oriented training tool increases comprehension of the concepts covered through easy-to-follow demonstrations and explanations.

The DVD series is broken down into 17 modules, each complementing a chapter in the handbook and accompanying workbook. It shows the component or technology in specific applications, its various types and uses, maintenance and diagnostic tips, and standards available. The new DVDs, together with the handbook and workbook, offers the most comprehensive training tool available to industry.

  • The handbook/DVD combo makes training information easier to understand. While the handbook is written in an easy to read format, the DVDs visually reinforce the important points in each chapter by using computer generated graphics and concise field application footage. The workbook rounds out the series by testing the student on the information presented.

    Whether you are bringing new employees up to speed on the PT industry, teaching the basics of PT/MC engineering, or educating employees on new PT products and technologies, the PTDA Handbook/DVD Series is for you! You won't find a more comprehensive resource on the fundamentals of power transmission and motion control anywhere.
