Did you know that you can now test your skills on a Mobile Elevating Work Platform (MEWP) using a virtual reality (VR) simulator? Leavitt Machinery now offers a MEWP VR Simulator as another resource for assessing an operator’s proficiency levels! This means that operators can react and respond to real-life situations in a safe and controlled environment. So, if you are looking for ways to increase your job site productivity and efficiency while reducing overall training costs and risk of accidents, the MEWP VR training simulator might be the right fit for you.
What is the MEWP VR Simulator? It is a North American-based technology designed to offer instruction on the operation of mobile elevating work platforms (aerial work platforms/lifts, boom lifts, scissor lifts, etc.). The physical unit, on a smaller scale, resembles the basket of a boom lift. It comes to a height of 51.1 inches, a width of 32.3 inches, and is equipped with controls necessary to operate a MEWP in real life.
The MEWP VR Simulator is currently located in Coquitlam. Access to the simulator is offered in one-hour timeslots. Please use one of the ‘request to register’ buttons below to contact CLAC and find out what times are available.
