  • Simulators, Operator Training | SimLog, VRSim and Axon

Simulation training helps reduce costs and improve your training program. The fact is, simulators will help improve your bottom line, in the following ways:

  • Use the simulator at local job fairs to promote your training program and increase the number of training applicants.
  • You can give everyone the same training opportunity, but still carefully pre-screen for operator potential using your own simulator-based benchmarks.
  • Help your trainees better understand operating concepts by demonstrating them, instead of just explaining.
  • Help trainees "in difficulty" to meet your same training objectives by allocating to them more simulator time. In this way, you can be sure that everyone will be ready for subsequent training in the field.
  • Make the training at the controls of your heavy equipment safer. How ? By providing a "virtual seat" for the drill-and-practice needed to acquire the necessary muscle memory and gain self-confidence. Remember too that fewer mistakes in the field means less wear-and-tear on your iron, since the "accidents" now happen on the simulator.
  • Thanks to the simulator-based preparation, your students will reach their performance targets sooner at the controls of your heavy equipment. As a result, you'll now "find" time to teach them more advanced techniques without increasing your seat-time hours.
  • Finally, with improved skills, your graduates will be more employable, and the reputation of your training program is increased. And that means more applicants for your next class.

Isn't it time to reduce your training costs and improve your training program?

  • BOFA Americas Laser Fume Extraction

    In the rare event that a burning ember or spark is drawn into the fume extraction unit, there is the possibility that debris in the filters could ignite. Although any resultant fire would typically be retained within the fume extraction unit, this would cause significant damage and in extreme circumstances, the risk may extend beyond the extraction unit. For processes where such risks have been identified, additional protection in the form of an in-line firebox is an additional precaution.

  • BOFA Advantage Range of Laser Fume Extractors

    The BOFA inline pre-filter 1000 has been designed specifically for applications that generate high amounts of dust or particulate.

    This inline filter unit is positioned alongside the main BOFA fume filtration system to increase the overall filter capacity and extend the life of the main filters. The DeepPleat DUO pre-filter incorporates a massive drop-out chamber within the filter, having a volume area of 15ltrs. Above the drop-out chamber but still within the housing there is a sealed 200mm deep pleat layer of F8 media giving a surface area in excess of 30 sq meters.
