Drill Jumbo Personal Simulator

The simulation software puts you at the controls of a modern twin-boom Drill Jumbo in an underground mining tunnel (drift). You can even change the viewpoint during the simulation at the touch of a button!

Simply set up the simulator controls, install the simulation software (in English or Spanish) on your desktop or laptop PC, and begin!

Add a big screen display for "life-size" graphics, and quality speakers for the audio feedback. Simlog even offers a vibration system to enhance the simulation experience. There are setup options to suit almost every budget.

Software Description

There are six "Simulation Modules" of increasing difficulty. Early Simulation Modules present a single hold to be drilled at a designated position and orientation. Later Simulation Modules require drilling complete rounds and cross-cutting in wider drifts. Key "Performance Indicators" measure how quickly and how carefully the simulated work is performed, including execution time, drilling precision (errors in position and orientation), and the number of collisions. In this way, the feedback is diagnostic, instead of just a consolidated pass/fail score.

Simulation results are automatically saved, so trainees can progress at their own pace without trainer supervision. To simplify the record-keeping, Simlog offers a database product called Simulation Manager, and the same database can be used with all of our Personal Simulators.

Simulator Controls

Three kinds of simulator controls may be used:

• inexpensive PC Controls
• lever-style Replica Controls, featuring industrial components suitable for table-top mounting
• joystick-style OEM Controls, with parts from the operator controls of real drill jumbos
