November 5 7, 2014
Between 5 to 7 November 2014 took place the 21st
Edition of the International Conference and Exhibition of
Hydraulics and Pneumatics HERVEX 2014, organized
for the first time in partnership with KOMAG Institute of
Mining Technology, Gliwice, Poland, that has joined the
traditional
organizing
partners
Hydraulics
and
Pneumatics Research Institute INOE 2000-IHP,
Bucharest, Romania and Chamber of Commerce and
Industry Valcea, Romania.
The Hervex event is the most significant international
scientific reunion in the field of Fluid Power in Romania.
The International Conference offers a common platform
for presentation and discussion of innovation trends in
FLUID POWER, to manufacturers, dealers, users, and
scientists.
Scientific lectures and novelties presented under the
framework of the conference event, regarding
equipments and integrated systems, represent a basis for
a new impulse towards development and innovation in
Fluid Power, activity field which provides the high
productivity means for a greater energy efficiency of
industrial and mobile equipment.
In the official opening, speeches have been presented by
Dipl. Eng. Valentin CISMARU, Chair of Chamber of
Commerce and Industry Valcea, Ph.D. Eng. Petrin
