Highland Community College's wind turbine technician students are using hydraulic pumps, wrenches and tools, thanks to a $21,000 donation from Rockford, Ill.-based manufacturer SPX Hydraulic Technologies.
The SPX Power Team equipment allows the students to train on industry specific tools as they complete the wind turbine technician associate of applied science degree and certificate programs.
The donation includes an electric torque wrench pump, two hydraulic torque wrenches, two hydraulic hand pumps and several associated components.
