Simply set up the simulator controls (see below for details), install the
simulation software (in English, French, or
Spanish) on your
desktop or laptop PC, and begin!
The simulation software puts you at the controls of a
modern heavy hauler at work in a typical mine site, in interaction with a simulated
Electric Rope Shovel.
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 nine "Simulation Modules" of increasing
difficulty, starting with Controls Familiarization.
The final module, Complete Haul Cycle, combines loading, hauling,
and dumping. A simulated
Electric Rope Shovel
is built right in, to help teach truck spotting interaction.
Key "Performance Indicators" measure how
quickly and how carefully the simulated work is performed
including execution time, maximum driving speed, and the occurrence of
termination faults such as improper gear changing and hoist control.
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 Mining Truck
Personal Simulator is just USD$11,000.
Since even small accidents due to inexperience can cost thousands of
dollars in replacement parts and downtime, this is good value indeed, 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
Two kinds of simulator controls may be used (both offer USB connectivity):
Free Software Evaluation
Simlog offers free software evaluation to qualified heavy equipment industry
professionals. In Evaluation Mode, all of the simulator functionality can be
experienced, but there are some limitations. To
