The CYBERMINE4 represents ThoroughTec’s first big push into the Australian market. Justin Collins, business development manager based in Perth said that up till now local sales had been slow following the establishment of their Perth office eighteen months ago. However, after deals with Mining Industry Skills Centre and Sandvik Group and with another major contract just finalised – the outlook is positive.

For its training programs, NMMA already counts on two CYBERMINE Simulators, supplied by ThoroughTec and acquired with funding provided under the Canada-Manitoba Western Economic Partnership Agreement.
The simulators include load haul dumpers (LHDs) and articulated dump trucks (ADTs), which are modelled on specific Sandvik and Atlas Copco underground mining equipment. These two systems will be stationed at Hudbay Minerals in Flin Flon and Vale Inco in Thompson. Each one will be delivered with customized virtual mine worlds that are based on the actual Hudbay Minerals and Vale Inco mine sites. The idea is to allow operators to train and get used to the underground mining environment in which they will be operating the actual equipment, without even venturing underground.

A South African simulator maker has released an updated version of its mining simulator training platform.
Simulation has become one of the key training tools in the mining sector. One of the key players in this area, ThoroughTec, has unveiled its fourth-generation mining equipment simulators. The CYBERMINE4 range builds on the success of the previous generations.
The most notable addition to the CYBERMINE4 range is the option for a 360-degree panoramic display screen. This completely immerses the student in the simulated mining world. Students can use all four screens when operating the equipment, providing increased awareness of surroundings and greater overall accuracy in simulator training.
