• CM Labs Simulation Training Solutions

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.
