Operator training

Our operator training is designed to provide learners with the knowledge and understanding required to operate equipment safely and productively in various conditions; focusing on less downtime, higher availability and more productivity. Courses are designed to up-skill qualified operators in the safe operation and to optimize production of the equipment.

Operator Familiarisation training is an introduction and familiarisation to the equipment. It allows learners to safely move the equipment in a non-production environment using a training handout as a reference. Learners will gain insight into the overall equipment operation and learn required user maintenance areas. Initially a classroom presentation is conducted, followed by an opportunity to operate the equipment. Techniques covered in the classroom can be practiced on a simulator where available.

Objective

At the end of this course, learners will be able to identify, recall and demonstrate basic safe operational and maintenance functions relating to Komatsu underground equipment.

Course Topics

  • Apply site safety systems and procedures, including isolation procedures, when operating Komatsu underground equipment.
  • Identify components of the equipment and their function.
  • Carry out pre-start, start-up, shutdown, and isolation procedures in accordance with technical documentation.

Operate Equipment training is focused on the equipment in production. Practical and general operational application theories are applied to give learners the skills needed to operate the equipment safely and productively in various working conditions.

Objective

At the end of this course, learners will be able to assess, identify and apply optimal operational requirements to operate and maintain the equipment safely according to conditions.

Course topics

  • Apply site safety systems and procedures, including isolation procedures, when operating Komatsu underground equipment.
  • Identify optimal capability of the equipment and its limits.
  • Identify equipment optimisation according to conditions.
  • Operate the equipment in accordance with technical documentation.
  • Recognise and respond to hazardous and emergency situations in accordance with technical documentation.

Technical training

Our rechnical training offering embeds basic skills such as diagram reading, component identification, circuit analysis and test instrument use for fault-finding to deal with more advanced problem solving. With true component diagnostics and fault-finding simulators builds experience through practical knowledge application.

This training course is an introduction and familiarisation to the Electrical, Mechanical/Hydraulics section of the equipment. It allows learners to identify and respond to faults in Electrical, Mechanical/Hydraulics systems using the equipment schematics as a reference. Learners will gain insight into the overall equipment Electrical, Mechanical/Hydraulics section and learn required user maintenance areas. Initially a classroom presentation is conducted, followed by an opportunity to identify Electrical, Mechanical/Hydraulic components and their functions.

Objective

At the end of this course, learners will be able to identify and respond to faults and maintenance requirements in Electrical, Mechanical/Hydraulics systems of the equipment.

Course Topics

  • Apply site safety systems and procedures, including isolation procedures, when working with Electrical, Mechanical/Hydraulics systems.
  • Identify components of Electrical, Mechanical/Hydraulics systems and their function.
  • Introduction to User Interface navigation.
  • Introduction to Maintenance and Fault Finding.
  • In-depth User Interface Navigation to diagnose, identify and respond to Electrical, Mechanical/Hydraulics system faults.
    NOTE: Diagnostics and Troubleshooting is only available with the use of True Component Diagnostics and Fault-Finding Training tools.

Diagnostics and troubleshooting training

Diagnostics and troubleshooting training is focused on in-depth diagnostics, maintenance and root cause analysis. Practical application theories are applied to give learners the skills needed to diagnose, maintain, and troubleshoot the electrical, mechanical/hydraulics section of the equipment safely.
