Simlog’s Wheeled Material Handler Personal Simulator delivers hands-on training with lifelike realism, replicating a typical articulated material handler equipped with an elevating cab, four-tine grapple, and outriggers. This comprehensive solution helps operators build safe, efficient skills for handling scrap and bulk materials in dynamic yard environments.
Designed to replicate a variety of operational practices, this simulator features multiple training modules that mirror everyday tasks at metal recycling facilities. Whether using your own PC or opting for a preconfigured PC bundle, the software is ready to deploy in English or French, making it easy to integrate into your workforce or educational program.
Training setups are flexible with Simlog’s rugged Replica Controls or an immersive Operator Chair. Both options provide an authentic operator experience that simulates real-world joystick movement, grapple control, steering, and foot pedal interaction. All control components are built to industrial-grade standards to withstand extended training use.
Simlog’s Replica Controls for the Wheeled Material Handler Simulator use multi-purpose joysticks with 8 push-buttons and optional tabletop brackets to enhance ergonomics. Joysticks can also be mounted to the sides of a standard chair to closely mimic real equipment cabins.
Complete the setup with a commercial off-the-shelf USB steering wheel, 3-pedal toe-down unit, and a USB-ready shifter for stabilizer control. These components are compatible with several Simlog simulators, offering added value in multi-simulator labs.
Protect and transport your complete simulator setup with custom travel cases. Foam-cut compartments hold each control securely, while built-in wheels and a pull-out handle provide mobility and ease of storage.
The Operator Chair delivers a complete simulation setup, integrating dual joysticks, foot pedals, and steering into an industrial-grade platform. Adjustable for user comfort, the chair replicates real cabin layouts for wheeled material handlers.
Two joystick models are available: Simlog’s multi-purpose joysticks with 8 push-buttons or “OEM-style” industrial joysticks with a lever control for outriggers. Both configurations include integrated toggles for parking brake and outrigger operation.
The simulation software provides a progressive learning path with multiple modules that reflect everyday material handling tasks. Operators practice critical techniques like driving, grapple control, and container loading with feedback on performance and safety.
Thirty-one Key Performance Indicators track every aspect of operator performance. Feedback is diagnostic and immediate, helping instructors pinpoint areas of improvement and ensure readiness for real-world operation.
