At CM Labs, we develop the only simulation-based training on the market that accurately replicates the critical machine behavior of the widest range of port equipment. It’s an essential component of simulation that ensures efficient operator training and skills that transfer to the real equipment. Enhanced with the advanced capabilities of our Intellia Training Packs, CM Labs solutions demonstrate a commitment to realism, customization, and practical training that prepares operators for the complexities of actual operations.
In the showcased video clips below, you’ll see our advanced physics engine at work, demonstrating how accurately our simulations replicate the real movements of port heavy equipment, from the intricacies of cable dynamics to the specific handling characteristics of different machines and vehicles. Explore how CM Labs’ simulations bring to life the following key aspects:
CM Labs’ simulation training, as seen in this video of our Ship to Shore Crane (STS) Simulator Training Pack, captures the true behavior of cables in operation, teaching operators to recognize cable tension and slack as real-life cues for handling containers.
This accuracy ensures operators can rely on their senses, not just visual indicators, improving their real-world preparedness while also enhancing efficiency and safety.
In every Intellia Training Pack, CM Labs’ simulation captures the real machine behavior of cables in operation, as when using a mobile harbor crane, as seen in this video.
CM Labs’ simulation trains operators on the nuances of sideward and in-and-out swing control, and how to use the rotator to take control of moving a container to the delivery vehicle.
With a passionate commitment to precision, CM Labs’ team works hard to ensure the highest level of training for your operators. Intellia Training Packs provide an unrivaled level of realism in port equipment simulation training. As seen in this video, CM Labs’ Ship-To-Shore (STS) Crane Simulator Training Pack recreates the actual machine behavior of the twist and lock mechanism. This realism helps teach correct container alignment techniques, ensuring operators do not develop the habit of approximate positioning.
This accuracy ensures operators can rely on their senses, not just visual indicators, improving their real-world preparedness while also enhancing efficiency and safety.
Operators experience the authentic physics of material interaction—again using the mobile harbor crane training, but in a different capacity—from the way the crane’s grab impacts and moves bulk materials to realistic deformations and dust effects.
This level of detail teaches the subtleties of material management under various conditions.
Focusing on vehicle stability and the impact of load distribution and height, the simulations in the Reach Stacker Simulator Training Pack—shown in this video—demonstrate real-time equipment responses to changes in center of gravity.
Operators learn the consequences of unsafe practices without real-world risks, fostering a deeper understanding of equipment behavior.
CM Labs stands out in the market for its ability to provide a custom environment for customers—from replicating a specific yard layout to matching lane configurations and machine controls.
When it comes to recreating specific yard layouts, CM Labs can configure simulation training packs to match real-life logistics and space constraints. This allows operators to navigate familiar terrains effectively, increasing their efficiency and confidence in managing real-world tasks.
As an additional service, CM Labs can tailor lane configurations to replicate your actual working environment.
This customization helps operators train under realistic jobsite conditions, enhancing their spatial awareness and operational accuracy to improve their ability to move cargo quickly and efficiently.
CM Labs can customize controls and control boxes on the training simulators to adapt specifically to your needs and a wide variety of real-world controls. This flexibility allows operators to train on replicas of their actual equipment, ensuring familiarity and reducing onboarding time.
This is part of CM Labs’ unique ability to provide top-level services that help enhance efficiency and productivity in everyday operations, tailoring solutions to optimize both training outcomes and operational readiness.
All of CM Labs’ simulator training packs replicate authentic machine behavior. This authentic machine behavior is the result of an engineering-grade system that allows our developers to build each mechanism from the ground up. Rather than simulate a crane as a whole, for example, this approach accurately simulates each piece of the machine, so that all parts interact with each other and respond as they would in the real world.
