The Sun Hydraulics website ( www.sunhydraulics.com) gives the visitor the opportunity to create a web-generated cartridge/manifold by electronically assembling Sub cartridges into standard Sun manifolds (for custom-engineered Valvepak products, contact Axiom Hydraulics). On the fly product data and pricing information can be generated to explore options. The 3D model can also be downloaded and used to display 2D orientation views, permitting users to share product information with their colleagues. The website has a (FAQ) frequently asked questions area to assist visitors.
