Simulator-Based Training

Training heavy equipment operators is hard. And costly. Hard, because you're teaching skills, and that takes lots of drill and practice under careful supervision. Costly, because all that drill and practice is expensive with wear-and-tear on real iron, not to mention instructor salaries. Now think of the risks to people and equipment when you've got trainees at the controls of your equipment!
For all of these reasons, Simlog's Personal Simulators have become a trusted and a cost-effective way of improving traditional operator training programs. The fact is, Simlog-style simulator-based training is:
  • completely safe
  • inexpensive
  • always available (our simulated machine never break down)
  • monitored, since the simulator saves a complete log of the simulator-based work on your PC
  • accelerated, because our instruction design presents simulated tasks that are progressively more difficult, in order to break up the learning into small "steps" which build upon each other
  • reliable, thanks to Simlog's innovative 3D simulation technology
  • objective, since for each Simulation Module, performance is evaluated by measuring key performance indicators associated with both job productivity and quality
  • self-paced, i.e. each simulator user can advance from module to module at his/her own speed (with no trainer interaction)
  • consistent, because the same exercises are presented to everyone, making it possible to really compare the performance of different people
  • generic, since people learn the essentials of operating heavy equipment without manufacturer-specific details, making it easy to proceed to "hands-on" training on a variety of real equipment
  • fun, i.e. simulator-based training improves motivation by fostering a completely new attitude toward learning!
So whether you're training new operators or re-training older operators, you can count on Simlog to help people learn to do things right!
