Shovel Simulators • Excavator Simulators

Ensuring your shovel and excavator operators are performing at their peak.

The primary goal of mine management is to achieve consistently safe and efficient mining operations in a continually changing and complex environment. Efficient excavation activities can contribute significantly to overall mine productivity.

With this in mind, the CYBERMINE range of shovel simulators and excavator simulators apply state-of-the-art technologies to instill safety of operation and attain consistently high levels of efficiency in heavy equipment operators. The CYBERMINE range of excavator simulators and shovel simulators includes all combinations of electric, diesel, rope and hydraulic models from all OEMs.

The CYBERMINE Excavator Simulator and Shovel Simulator range simulates heavy equipment from all major manufacturers such as Caterpillar (CAT), Hitachi, Komatsu, Liebherr, P&H and Taiyuan Heavy Industry.

“Efficient excavating plays a key role in the productivity of our mine, and increased efficiency comes from proper training. Our operators are all trained on CYBERMINE simulators.”

Virtual Mine Worlds

CYBERMINE Shovel and Excavator Simulators are delivered with a highly realistic, operating, 3D simulated mine world, complete with automated haul trucks, dozers and other such equipment in support of the shovel or excavator training and evaluation process.

Customised 3D own mine worlds which simulate your actual mine site, including mine haul trucks, pits and loading methods are available on request.

Training and Evaluation Tools

CYBERMINE simulator exercises may be configured to address various mine operator training requirements, including operations with different soil types, weather conditions, automatic haul truck behaviour patterns, loading techniques, night operations, sub-system failures and advanced emergency situations.

The mining operator’s dig, swing, dump and return phases are continually monitored and recorded for each pass, together with adherence to safety procedures, correct equipment handling techniques and response to emergency situations and failures. These performance reports together with the instructor’s after-action review capability provide a complete mining simulation training and evaluation system.

CYBERMINE Shovel Simulators and Excavator Simulators provide an excellent mine operator training and evaluation tool for all operators of this type of equipment in order to optimise safety and improve productivity.
