POWER OF ATTORNEY FOR SECTION 16 FILINGS


The undersigned, Gary A. Gotting, an individual, (the "Undersigned")
does hereby make, constitute and appoint Gregory C. Yadley, Paul R.
Lynch and Julio C. Esquivel, and each of them acting individually, his
true and lawful attorneys for the purposes hereinafter set forth,
effective as of March 3, 2017.

References in this power of attorney to "attorney-in-fact" are to each of
the persons named above and to the person or persons substituted
hereunder pursuant to the power of substitution granted herein.

The Undersigned hereby grants to the Attorney-in-Fact, for the
Undersigned and in his name, place and stead the power to:

(1)	prepare and submit to the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC") a Form ID, including amendments thereto,
and any other documents necessary or appropriate to obtain codes,
passwords, and passphrases enabling the undersigned to make
electronic filings with the SEC of reports required by Section 16(a)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or any rule or regulation of the
SEC;

(2)	execute for and on behalf of the undersigned, in the
undersigned's capacity as an officer and/or director of Sun Hydraulics
Corporation or one or more of its subsidiaries (the "Company"), Forms
3, 4, and 5, including amendments thereto, in accordance with Section
16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules thereunder;

(3)	do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of the
undersigned which may be necessary or desirable to complete and
execute any such Form ID, 3, 4, or 5, complete and execute any
amendment or amendments thereto, and file such form with the United
States Securities and Exchange Commission and any stock exchange
or similar authority; and

(4)	take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection
with the foregoing which, in the opinion of such attorney-in-fact, may
be of benefit to, in the best interest of, or legally required by, the
undersigned, it being understood that the documents executed by such
attorney-in-fact on behalf of the undersigned pursuant to this Power of
Attorney shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and
conditions as such attorney-in-fact may approve in such attorney-in-
fact's discretion.

The undersigned hereby grants to each such attorney-in-fact full power
and authority to do and perform any and every act and thing
whatsoever requisite, necessary, or proper to be done in the exercise of
any of the rights and powers herein granted, as fully to all intents and
purposes as the undersigned might or could do if personally present,
with full power of substitution or revocation, hereby ratifying and
confirming all that such attorney-in-fact, or such attorney-in-fact's
substitute or substitutes, shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue
of this power of attorney and the rights and powers herein granted. The
undersigned acknowledges that the foregoing attorneys-in-fact, in
serving in such capacity at the request of the undersigned, are not
assuming, nor is the Company assuming, any of the undersigned's
responsibilities to comply with Section 16 of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934.  The Undersigned shall indemnify and hold harmless
each attorney-in-fact for any exercise of the powers granted hereby.

This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect until the
undersigned is no longer required to file Forms 3, 4, and 5 with respect
to the undersigned's holdings of and transactions in securities issued
by the Company, unless earlier revoked by the undersigned in a signed
writing delivered to the foregoing attorneys-in-fact.

This Power of Attorney may be executed and delivered by facsimile,
PDF or other electronic transmission and shall be deemed to have the
same legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy of this Power
of Attorney.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Power of Attorney
to be executed on the date first written above.
