Electric Rope Shovel Simulator
This electric power shovel simulator puts you at the controls of a shovel at work in a typical mine site, in interaction with a simulated mining truck. You can even use the keyboard function keys and mouse controls during the simulation to change the point of view.
Software description
There are eight simulation modules of increasing difficulty, starting with controls familiarization. The final modules combine elements of dipper fill at the rock face, plus cab-side or blind-side truck loading. A simulated mining truck is built in to help teach truck spotting interaction.
Key performance indicators measure how quickly and how carefully the simulated work is performed including:
- Execution time
- Dipper fill
- Boom jacking
- Time spent in hoist limit and crowd/retract limit slowdown conditions
- The occurrence of collisions
Tracking results
Simulation results are automatically saved, so trainees can progress at their own pace without trainer supervision. To simplify record keeping, VISTA Training offers a database product called Simulation Manager, and the same database can be used with the simulators we offer.
Simulator controls
Replica controls for this simulator consist of two USB-ready industrial joysticks and table-top mounting brackets.
Languages
The electric rope shovel simulator is available in English, French or Spanish.
