Amatrol’s Rigging 2 Learning System (95-RGB2) adds to the first Rigging training system (950-RGB1) to offer a comprehensive learning experience, to teach rigging safety training and industrial crane operation skills, and to help learners prepare for certifications. This hands-on Rigging training system expands on the initial offering of rigging knowledge to include synthetic slings, equipment movement, and industrial cranes. Proper rigging techniques are vital for efficient movement of loads and workers safety.
This Crane Operation training course includes two synthetic slings, four load protection pads, jack, lever dolly, and much more! These components will be used to explore topics such as synthetic sling operation, equipment movement using roller bars and dollies, and crane operation signals. In addition to equipment and printed curriculum, this industrial system offers a student reference guide, instructor’s manual, installation guide, and an optional online rigging training course.
Amatrol’s Rigging 3 Learning System (95-RGB3) adds to the initial hands-on rigging training systems (950-RGB1 and 95-RGB2) by including hands-on wire mesh sling skills, rigging knots training, and rigging safety skills. This advanced rigging training system provides learners with additional components and skills to further expand their understanding and competency of rigging. Proper rigging techniques are vital for efficient movement of loads and workers safety.
This advanced rigging training system includes a rope system, D-shackle, steel tubing, a metal mesh sling, and much more! These components will be used to explore topics such as making a long, short, and eye splice in a fiber rope, describing the function of a tag line, and learning how to assemble and lift a load using a wire mesh sling. In addition to equipment and printed curriculum, this system offers a student reference guide, instructor’s manual, installation guide, and an optional online eBook.
Amatrol’s Solar Site Analysis Training System (95-SA1) teaches learners both the theoretical knowledge and hands-on skills they will need to analyze and choose suitable locations for solar arrays and components. Learners begin by studying how to conduct a preliminary site assessment, including applicable codes, jurisdictional authorities, permits, and licenses required for solar energy system installations.
Learners will also use real-world equipment, like the Solar Pathfinder sun path calculator, to perform and interpret a shading analysis in order to determine suitable locations for electrical photovoltaic and solar thermal components. The included multimedia curriculum also teaches other relevant skills, such as developing site layout drawings.
The Solar Thermal Cold Water Supply Station training is designed to reduce the temperature of hot water from the open loop (950-STOL1), closed loop (950-STCL1), or installation solar thermal (950-STF1) learning systems and feed it back to the learning system at a temperature and pressure that is similar to a city water supply.

Item Number:MTModern mining equipment is increasingly complex, costly, and difficult to operate productively. As a result, proper operator training has become everyone's business. The fact is, it takes training to spot a truck and position it for loading under a full bucket. It also takes training to back up a truck just using mirrors under that bucket. Otherwise, your mining operations will suffer from lower productivity, higher fuel costs, increased tire wear, and more equipment maintenance and repair.
