Cat® Equipment Training Solutions
Today’s mining companies recognize the importance of providing equipment operators the training they need to operate safely and productively. Cat® Equipment Training Solutions offers a comprehensive suite of equipment operator training solutions to help you grow your team's skills and improve the efficiency and productivity of your mining operation.
Whether you’re training new operators or refreshing the skills of experienced operators, there is an equipment training solution to meet your needs — from instructor-led classroom sessions and in-the-iron sessions to a breadth of simulator training solutions that make it possible for training to take place in a safe, controlled environment where there’s no danger to the machine and no risk of injury for the operator.
Cat Equipment Simulator Training
Cat Equipment Training Solutions offers two different types of simulator training. Cat Simulators are an economical way to train operators, who learn the same procedures as in the actual machine unsing genuine controls and buttons.. And to further meet the needs of our customers in the mining industry, we have a long relationship with ThoroughTec Simulation to provide a comprehensive portfolio of ultra-high-fidelity operator simulators for Cat surface and underground mining equipment.
See the Benefits
- Consistency. All operators are trained to the same standards, and simulation is totally objective and impartial in its evaluation of performance.
- Improved safety. Operators train without risk to machines, themselves, instructors, co-workers or property.
- Emergency scenario training. Simulators allow operators to repeatedly enact detailed emergency scenarios — something that is impossible to replicate in a real machine.
- Increased production. Simulator-trained operators are generally more efficient and productive on real machines.
- Reduced training time. Data shows that simulator-trained operators require less time to achieve competency and specific training objectives.
- Training flexibility. Training can take place any time, night or day, on-site or off-site, and regardless of weather conditions.
- Reduced costs. Training costs are lowered by pre-screening applicants, decreasing training supervision requirements, and reducing training time and machine operating costs.
- Decreased production loss. Simulators minimize the use of production machines for training.
- Greater sustainability. Fewer greenhouse gases are produced through simulators when compared to a real machine. And improved skills lead to fewer repairs, less fuel usage, fewer greenhouse gases, and fewer components and parts.
