Training personnel quickly and safely to meet startup schedules

The Metris Operator Training Simulator (OTS) works in the same way as a flight simulator, providing operators with realistic, hands-on training modules — reducing the risk to both themselves and customer equipment. ANDRITZ is the world's leading high-fidelity process modeling and simulation software for the Mining and Minerals industry.

It can help train operators months before the actual plant is up and running. It helps produce better-trained operators - who will start up new processes faster, react more wisely to plant upsets, and be more productive.

The OTS instructor contains preconfigured scenarios that teach, train, and challenge trainees on process upsets, including two of the most intensive and intensive and complex procedures—start-up and shut-down.

In most cases, such a scenario would have significant safety, environmental, or production consequences, but a new operator, who has practiced start-up and shutdown on the OTS, immediately makes the correct decisions and the operation continues without incidents.
