Updated forklift simulator training

The Forklift Training Pack is said to be the only simulation-based package that exposes trainees to real forklift hazards and challenges.

Upgrades include improved graphics, new virtual environments, and reworked exercises. Trainees work on skills such as control familiarisation, transporting, loading and unloading materials of varying sizes and weights, managing ramps, manoeuvring tight turns, and braking. An exercise to prepare for certification and a “sandbox” for continued practice is included.

“The shortage of experienced operators highlights the importance of closing the skills gap,” said Alan Limoges, construction product manager at CM Labs. “That’s why we are focused on providing the most immersive learning experience to deliver the world’s best training outcomes.”

The Forklift Training Pack is compatible with all of CM Labs’ Vortex Simulators, including the desktop Vortex Edge Plus, the motion-enabled Vortex Edge Max, and the Vortex Advantage.
