Continuous Miner Training Simulator
Product Description
This system teaches the trainee operator how to control a Continuous Miner (CM) in such a way as to increase productivity and maintain a high safety standard. The trainee controls the CM in a virtual coal or potash mine with controls that closely resemble those of a real CM. The trainee operator works through a series of training scenarios that varies in complexity from simplistic scenarios to very complex and difficult scenarios. The trainee receives a complete training report at the end of each training session. The system may be used for the training of new operators or for evaluation of experienced operators. The training is performed in a safe and controlled environment.

Coal Data Sheet: ![The trainee operator wears a head mounted display [hmd]. A remote control unit that accurately resembles the real unit, is used to control the virtual continuous miner [cm].](thumbnails/mine_ugnd_cm_001.gif)
![The cutting cycle is the foundation of continuous miner [cm] operation, and is considered a critical skill. Once the trainee has mastered the basics, a shuttle car [sc] is added, and the trainee is required to optimally fill a sc.](thumbnails/mine_ugnd_cm_007.gif)
![The trainee is taught how to use the level indication system (red and green lights) of the continuous miner [cm]. When these warnings are ignored, the cm will cut into the roof. Sparks and on-screen warnings will appear.](thumbnails/mine_ugnd_cm_008.gif)
![Whenever the continuous miner [cm] is trammed backwards, a virtual cable handler will ensure that the power cable is kept out of harms way.](thumbnails/mine_ugnd_cm_009.gif)
![Overfilling of the shuttle car [sc] will cause spillage of coal. The operator will see the coal spilling and hear the sound of spilling coal. A warning message will appear on the instructor screen.](thumbnails/mine_ugnd_cm_010.gif)
