Forestry Equipment Training Simulators
CM Labs’ Forestry Equipment Training Simulators were designed in collaboration with Tigercat Industries to ensure precision engineering and realistic machine behavior. They provide training organizations with comprehensive education for operators — from roadwork with the Earthmoving Training Packs, and now, cutting and moving timber. The Forestry Training Packs currently run on CM Labs’ desktop Vortex Edge Plus and the motion-enabled Vortex Edge Max simulators.
Why train with Vortex Forestry simulators
Build safer operators
Students can practice challenging real-world operations, in complete safety.
Teach real efficiencies
Vortex simulators objectively log and record key metrics, so you can teach productive, economic machine use.
Train anywhere, anytime
No need to tie up production equipment: Vortex simulators are an always available, always-on resource, no matter what the weather.
Reduce wear and tear
Novices can be hard on equipment. Get them up to speed on a Vortex simulator before they get on the real machine.
Forestry equipment training packs
Our Forwarder and Harvester Simulator Training Packs feature an industry-based curriculum built to meet the training and recruitment demands of the industry. With the widest variety of simulated terrains on the market, these training packs help to ensure safe and efficient operations.
