VORTEX SIMULATORS

Our solutions enable organizations to offer comprehensive training, attract new students, accelerate skills development and optimize capital assets. For decades, the benefits of simulation-based training have been clear to pilots, surgeons and astronauts, among others. Huge advances in computing, instructional technology and 3D graphics mean that simulators are now available in all sectors, including the heavy-equipment industry – where Vortex leads the way.

The Vortex Advantage: Five Major Benefits

With Vortex solutions, organizations can offer in-depth experience on multiple machines in one location, regardless of the weather or time of day. They also lower fuel costs and reduce wear and tear on real equipment. Since Vortex simulators are expandable, organizations can add new machines or extra scenarios whenever they want, and because Vortex simulators are portable, they can be taken anywhere for training or promotional purposes.

• Safety first: Simulation-based training prepares operators for both routine and unexpected situations. Operators master correct techniques, practise difficult tasks and learn how to instinctively and properly react to problems like shifting loads, unstable ground, high winds and equipment malfunctions and breakdowns.
• Enhanced efficiency: While reducing training time, Vortex simulators also produce more efficient operators. Through repeated manoeuvres and graduated exercises, new operators acquire crucial skills quickly and correctly. Learning on a Vortex simulator means making fewer mistakes and being more efficient on the job.
• Crucial experience: Simulation-based training easily allows students to log extra hours with less supervision and very little cost. They get up to speed quickly on new work challenges, which expands their experience and builds confidence.
• Team-based focus: Effective team work, task coordination and communication are essential for safe and successful outcomes, especially in industries such as construction, ports and offshore. From a “plan, do, review” approach to learning, Vortex simulation-based training excels at immersing teams in real challenges that build essential skills.
• Return on investment: Owning and operating heavy equipment is costly. Student operators make mistakes, burn more fuel and cause more wear and tear, which lead to higher training costs. By using Vortex simulators, students learn the proper use of the controls, pedals and on-board systems. Before they operate the real equipment they already know how to use it properly.
