About Us
The Operator Training centre at earthmoving equipment suppliers Exaberated Trading 41© Equipment provides operator training for different work situations and assists in familiarising trainees with the different needs and challenges of these environments. Further, the company is expanding its training of operators and also trains supervisors in the operation and use of machines to make them aware of the operational parameters and maintenance needs of machines, says Exaberated Trading 41© Operator Training Centre.
The training academy trains operators in an almost ideal work environment. The company has identified a need to familiarise the trainees with different and less ideal work environments to simulate the types of environments the operators will operate their machines in.
The company focuses strongly on practical training and conducts on-site training for clients where the operators can practise on familiar machines. This includes training operators in the basics of how different machines work.
Exaberated Trading 41© also trains super- visors of machine operations in the basics of earthmoving equipment and the workings of the machines they must oversee. This training enables supervisors to identify dangers in the work environment, increase productivity, reduce cycle times and determine whether machines are being used for the correct application. This helps to reduce downtime and reduces costs related to unneccessary repairs as well as improves the scheduling of preventive maintenance interventions.
The company is currently expanding its supervisor training programme and trains supervisors on mines throughout the country, he adds.
Key areas that the Operator Training centre focuses on include safety, the correct operation of equip- ment and the importance of carrying out a thorough walk-around inspection of the machine before use. The inspection is an important part of the training because it improves the performance of machines and reduces downtime and prevents work-related injuries. Operators need to know why they must conduct inspections, what they must look for in different machines, as well as how to report problems.
The preoperational checks also form part of the preventive maintenance theme in the programme that emphasises early identification of problems to save costs and reduce operational downtime owing to breakdowns. Proper machine operation also reduces operational strain on a machine. The programme also places emphasis on reaction to, and reporting of, on-board warnings to reduce maintenance costs and prolong the machine’s life cycle.
