Aircraft MRO Training Made Effective in VR
An MRO services is only as efficient as its technicians; hence effective training of the technicians makes great business sense.
TecknoSIM Aircraft pushback training simulators is designed to effectively train and evaluate pushback operators on push & towing operations at the airside and hangars. The simulator accommodates both conventional (tow bar) and tow-bar-less equipment and replicates the actual controls & vehicle dynamics of equipment. The simulator helps in skilling the operators on handling both narrow body and wide body aircrafts operations. TecknoSIM Pushback & Towing simulator prepares the operator on different procedures under realistic airside conditions. The simulator helps in training the operators on safe and efficient operations while reducing hazards, incidences while mitigating and managing risks at the airport.
TecknoSIM Aircraft pushback training simulators are widely used for
TecknoSIM Airside Environment is a highly realistic replica of airside and hangar. The terrain including the GSE roads, aprons, taxiways and runways with airside markings and signages are designed as per ICAO standards. TecknoSIM Airside Terrain bundle includes remote bays and aprons with aerobridges, angular & straight bays, aprons for different aircraft types of aircraft for realistic training. Terrain bundle also includes a wide variety of narrow and wide-body aircraft, GSE equipment, terminal buildings, aprons, taxiways, runways and other key buildings as seen at the airside. Hanger areas are specially designed as an add on package for training operators on hanger operations.
TecknoSIM pushback and towing simulator accommodates training for a wide variety of aircrafts including narrow body aircrafts (A320, A321, B737, ATR) and wide-body aircrafts (A350, A380, B747, B777, B787). The simulator covers a variety of tractors under both conventional (tow bar) and tow-bar-less categories. Training scenarios are designed for airside and hanger operations with different types of push and tow procedures. The trainer can design a variety of scenarios by selecting the type of aircraft, type of tractor, terrain type, environment condition (day/night, rain/fog/snow), different types of pushback procedure, etc.
Performance Evaluation of the trainee is an inbuilt feature of TecknoSIM Simulators. The simulator conducts a real-time evaluation of the trainees on their skills, knowledge, safety and productivity. A detailed evaluation report for each trainee is generated and stored in the Instructor software. The reports are stored in the trainee database and can be retrieved anytime by the instructor for further analysis. The record and replay feature allows the instructor to replay the scenario and train the operators on their mistakes.
TecknoSIM Instructor Software allows the trainer to control the sessions and maximize simulation training. The software allows the instructor to
TecknoSIM Team Play is an advanced training tool that allows multiple players including wing walker, tail watcher, brake rider, ATC, headset man, pushback operator and ramp manager to operate and learn in the same environment.
The simulator operator cab is a replica of the pushback equipment cab with an actual seat, force feedback steering and controls. All the controls are placed in ergonomically correct locations. The engine dynamics of the equipment are realistically designed to maximize the training value with respect to equipment operations under different conditions. TecknoSIm Simulators comes with an option of equipment specific simulator cab or generic configuration. TecknoSIM Convertible Kit options allow the user to accommodate multiple equipment types in the same simulator base unit.
The visual system is a key component of the training simulator. A properly designed visual system increases the level of realism and immerses the operators in real-world environments. The display system of Pushback Simulators are available in multiple options of single-screen display of 32″, Three 32″ screen display, Curved screens with multiple projectors for seamless 180-degree display.
TecknoSIM Simulators incorporate an integrated electric motion system that is compact and low on maintenance. The electric motion platform reproduces the effects and motions as experienced while operating the actual equipment. The electric actuators provide cues for operators on equipment dynamics, road surface, aircraft weight, engine vibrations, tires vibrations and more. Motion systems are available in options of three degrees of motion (3DOF) and six degrees of freedom (6DOF ) and are designed for maintenance-free operations.
TecknoSIM Simulators is equipped with an Instructor Operator station which controls the simulator training and enables the instructor to carry multiple training functions. The Instructor Station can be added on with a “Monitoring Station” which enables real-time monitoring of the live session.
