Virtual Training Solution for Mini Excavator Operators

As the industry’s first specialized training solution for mini excavator operators, the Intellia Mini Excavator Simulator Training Pack sets a new standard. The training pack’s unparalleled realism allows trainees to build muscle memory and learn the nuances of operating a mini excavator, including managing its unique tipping risks.

Training Pack Features

Features

Expert-designed training: Exercises offer in-depth training, including working around underground utilities, to prepare operators for how mini excavators are uniquely used on the jobsite.

In-exercise teachable moments: On-the-spot guidance reduces the risk of negative training and supports instructors by facilitating greater student autonomy.

Detailed safety metrics: Instructors gain insights on trainee performance and safety through advanced reporting features.

 

Learning Program

The Mini Excavator Simulator Training Pack features a beginner-friendly curriculum as well as advanced exercises crucial to mini excavator safety training.

Exercises are often set in busy, dense environments that mimic real worksites where mini excavators are commonly found, allowing operators to safely learn advanced maneuvers, improve situational awareness, and practice high-risk scenarios in complete safety. Lessons include:

• Walkaround Inspection: Teaches what to look for when doing a pre-operation inspection.
• Basic Controls: Teaches the essentials of how to run the mini excavator.
• Ramp Loading: Teaches how to load onto a ramp.
• Digging Techniques: Teaches the best techniques for digging access to a utility line while being mindful of obstacles.
• Grading Techniques: Teaches the best techniques for grading level ground with a mini excavator.
• Sandbox: Provides a freeform, objective-free environment that fosters critical thinking and problem-solving skills.

 

Performance Metrics

With the Mini Excavator Simulator Training Pack, instructors gain essential objective insights into operator safety and performance. These metrics include:

• Safety violations, such as load over human & vehicle, underground utility line break, and vehicle flip over
• Average speed
• Bucket fill percentage
• Soil spillage
• Idle time
• Even grading

Take your training to the next level with Intellia Instructor. Designed to empower organizations to scale their training, Intellia Instructor includes sophisticated report generation, customizable learning paths, live faults and weather challenges, and streamlined administrative functions. Uncoupled and untethered from a teaching station, instructors can support multiple trainees in real time via tablet while closely monitoring each individual’s performance.
