Detailed simulation of the harvesting cycle.
The Harvester Simulator Training Pack was designed in collaboration with Tigercat and teaches students how to safely manage the harvesting cycle on different terrains. It helps reduce the training burden on seasoned operators by ensuring a higher level of readiness for the field.
Trainees obtain a realistic lens into the actual work thanks to an immersive training environment fully equipped with multiple tree species, as well as night-time operations and different weather conditions like fog, rain, or snow.
With the Harvester Simulator, students progress through an industry-approved curriculum that was developed in consultation with forestry and logging training schools. It helps operators acquire the right skills and techniques relevant to the job market.
Students progress through an industry-approved curriculum that was developed in consultation with forestry and logging training schools. The harvesting cycles are simulated in detail so operators learn to proficiently control the felling direction, delimb a tree, and cut-to-length based on requested specs. Exercises include:
- Basic controls familiarization
- Loading and unloading from the trailer
- Plantation harvesting
- Rough terrain harvesting
- Delimbing and bucking
- Felling direction
- Skills challenge
- Freeform exercises
The Training Pack enables objective operator assessment with built-in performance metrics that can be customized and rolled up into a single score that updates in real-time. Metrics include:
- Time to complete exercises
- Fuel consumption
- Tree efficiency
- Safety violations
- Small tree protection
8-wheel drive hydrostatic transmission
282 horsepower
Oscillating stabilization
9-meter crane reach
4-wheel drive harvesting head with independent wheel arms
Required Controls:
Vortex Edge Plus:
Standard joystick controls & Pedals
Vortex Edge Max:
Standard joystick controls & Pedals
Vortex Advantage:
Suregrip Control Box Pair
The Simulator Training Pack incorporates Smart Training Technology™. That’s why it delivers the most transferable operator skills anywhere, outside of the real equipment. Everything from the Harvester’s hydraulics system, engine behavior, knuckle boom swing as well as movement of the harvester head are accurately replicated. Other detailed simulation includes:
- Boom backlash
- Steering system
- Tandem wheels
- Cabin swivel
- Mirrors and rearview camera
