Cat® Simulators SimLite Compact Track Loader
Set in a busy construction environment, the new Cat® Simulators SimLite Compact Track Loader teaches learners how to operate a Compact Track Loader using authentic Cat controls. The portable station allows instructors and learners to utilize operator training inside the classroom or off-site locations and includes exercises that teach learners how to conduct a walkaround inspection, maneuver the machine, use the jackhammer and blade box attachments and more.
“Companies are struggling to hire skilled workers. Training makes a difference. The Compact Track Loader is a versatile machine, so we created a versatile simulator that trains learners using authentic Cat® controls and teaches applications found on real-world jobsites. Training programs can integrate the system into their formal classroom programs or take it to worksites for application training,” says Simformotion CEO, Lara Aaron. Read more.

Why Should Heavy Equipment Operators Conduct a Pre-operation Walkaround?
Pre-operation walkaround inspections can prevent accidents, reduce costs and save time. Heavy equipment operators who take the time to conduct walkaround inspections can help ensure the machine is safe to operate, prevent repair and maintenance costs, and reduce downtime.

Finning Canada’s Steve Kean Shares How Cat Simulators Benefit Customers
Finning Canada’s Steve Kean shares how customers benefit from using Cat Simulators systems in their heavy equipment operator training programs – from evaluating potential new hires to training new employees to re-evaluating seasoned operators. “People look at simulators and say they’re just for new hires. They’re not. They are for new hires. They’re for re-evaluations,” says Kean.
