Simply set up the simulator controls for your hands and feet (see
below for details), install the
award-winning simulation software (in
English, French, or
Spanish) on your
desktop or laptop PC, and begin!
Both SAE and Backhoe-Loader joystick patterns are
available. You can even use the keyboard function keys and mouse controls
during the simulation to change the point of view.
Add a projector or big screen display for
"life size" graphics, and quality speakers for the audio feedback.
There are setup options to suit almost
every budget.

Software Description
There are twelve "Simulation Modules" of increasing difficulty,
beginning with Controls Familiarization, and ending with
Trenching and Truck Loading.
Key "Performance Indicators" measure how quickly and how carefully the
simulated work is performed, including execution time, percentage bucket fill, and truck
loading accuracy.
In this way, the feedback is diagnostic, instead of just a consolidated pass/fail score.
Simulation results are automatically saved, so trainees can progress at their
own pace without trainer supervision. To simplify the
record keeping, Simlog offers a
database product called Simulation
Manager, and the same database can be used with all of our
Personal Simulators.
Software Pricing
The price of the commercial software license for Simlog's Hydraulic Excavator
Personal Simulator is just USD$4,000. Since even small accidents due
to inexperience can cost thousands of dollars in replacement parts and
downtime, this represents excellent training value, not to mention the
improved training safety.
Pricing is "per PC", and this is a one time fee.
There are no restrictions on the number of people that you can train
with Simlog's help. International visitors may wish to use our
currency converter
to convert $USD pricing into another currency.
Simulator Controls
Three kinds of simulator controls may be used, each consisting of joysticks and "rocker style" pedals:
- PC Controls, consisting of low cost off-the-shelf input devices, for easy transportability
- Replica Controls, featuring USB-ready industrial components
- OEM Controls, with parts from the operator controls of real hydraulic excavators
Free Software Evaluation
Simlog offers free software evaluation to qualified heavy equipment industry
professionals. In Evaluation Mode, all of the simulator functionality can be
