Train to worksite standards in the classroom
With CM Labs Simulations’ Signalperson Training Station, trainees learn critical worksite skills, such as communication and teamwork, in a safe environment. While one trainee operates a crane on a Vortex simulator, another works cooperatively within the virtual job site, providing signals and guiding the operation through to successful completion via a webcam and picture-in-picture display.
Trainees can move around the worksite to inspect the lifting area, recognize potential hazards, gain a clear view of all site activities, and provide hand signals to the crane operator.
Together, they either fail as a team — or succeed as a team. The result: new operators that are better prepared for any job site.
Simulator Adoption Made Easy with CM Labs’ SimGuide Service
CM Labs’ SimGuide Service is designed to simplify the integration of your new simulator. We’ll guide you throughout the process of setting up and implementing your simulator, no matter what your objective.
With the SimGuide Service, you get a complete road map detailing how and when to use your simulator to meet your targets.
The SimGuide Service is for organizations at any stage of simulator adoption, whether developing a simulation-based training program for the first time, or extending the use of existing their CM Labs simulators.
CM Labs’ Excavator Simulator Training Pack: Operator readiness for today’s job sites.
CM Labs’ Excavator Simulator Training Pack is an all-in-one solution for learning critical operator skills, including basic operations, advanced skills, worksite collaboration, and the latest operator assistance technology.
There’s no simpler or safer way to prepare operators for the tools that are part of today’s highly technical job sites.
Vortex simulators: best-in-class training
CM Labs equipment training simulators provide operators with the skills to operate equipment safely and efficiently. Trainees can practice challenging real-world operations in complete safety while key operating performance metrics are objectively logged and recorded throughout training.
Operators can prepare for the routine and the unexpected. This makes our simulators invaluable for teaching safe, productive, economic machine use. With swappable controls and configurations ranging from the desktop to an immersive five-display simulator, Vortex simulators are built to run a wide range of training packs. Each Simulator Training Pack features self-guiding, progressive learning programs, and best-in-class simulation.

Excavator Simulator Training Pack
Operators sometimes need to bridge the skills gap – quickly and safely – to operate multi-use machinery and take new roles on the job site. Leverage these Add-on Modules as a cost-effective solution for cross-skill training, assessing new equipment, and working on team tasks, while tracking fuel efficiency and safety progress.
With Tandem Add-On Module
The Articulated Dump Truck (ADT) Simulator Training Pack is the only solution that accurately replicates machine stability, providing training opportunities to reduce the likelihood of accidents due to tipping. The training works on optimal loading and improving teamwork skills.
Part of the CM Labs’ family of earthmoving machines simulation training solutions, the ADT simulator is an entry-level training pack, ideal for training schools or companies with a wide range of equipment in their fleet.
The Forwarder Simulator Training Pack is sold in a bundle with the Harvester Simulator Training Pack. Developed in collaboration with Tigercat, every simulated machine component is backed by precise engineering specifications to ensure realistic behavior and maximum training value. Students gain exposure to the largest and widest variety of simulated terrains on the market that includes rocks, slopes, rivers, and tree stumps, and as result, transition faster and more effectively to the real equipment.
The Forwarder Simulator Training Pack’s curriculum was developed in consultation with forestry and logging training schools to ensure students acquire the right skills and techniques for safe and productive operations.
