Images from the Mobile Crane Personal Simulator

Sample Setup

There are many ways to set up your Mobile Crane Personal Simulator, and here we present one sample setup.

Screen Capture Images

Now here are three sample screen capture images (screenshots) of three different Simulation Modules of increasing difficulty from Simlog's Mobile Crane Personal Simulator software. (There are six simulation modules in all.) Note that the name of the Simulation Module and the trial number (simulation exercise) are displayed in the header of the simulation window at the top left.

In the first screenshot, taken from an introductory module, there is a small, vertical, "height bar" (shown in yellow with a blue cursor) used by the simulator to measure undesired up/down motion of the hookblock as it moves over the target on the ground.

Here is an image from a more advanced module designed to test load chart knowledge while executing lifts using various loads and hook-block assemblies; the target position for the load is shown in red "wire-frame". The load-moment indicator is coloured green, showing that operation is well within the load chart limits for this crane.

Finally, here is an image from one of the last simulation modules about trajectory following, simulating concrete pouring into wooden forms of various "zigzag" shapes. Note the presence of a small, horizontal, "distance" bar (shown in green with a blue cursor) used by the simulator to provide an additional visual cue of the position of the concrete pour over the form.
