Maintenance Simulators Overview

Classification of Simulators

A broad classification of the simulators:
- Fixed based Simulator
- Motion Based Simulator
- Part Task Trainer (PTT)
- Desktop Flight Trainer - Cockpit Procedure Trainer, Flight Management Systems
- Maintenance Simulator etc. to name a few

Maintenance Simulator

Maintenance simulators aid Trainees/ Technicians in equipping themselves with the knowledge of second level of maintenance on the virtual Sub-systems of the Aircraft (or) Bridge for navy (or) Armoured vehicles for Armed forces without Grounding any of these Equipments.

Benefits of Maintenance Simulator

The following benefits can be derived from the Maintenance Simulator :

- Training of Maintenance technician by exposing to simulated systems prior to hands-on training on actual systems.
- Reducing the training time for technician due to simulator training syllabus complementing maintenance syllabus.
- Acquiring improved skill due to close supervision and learning by easy replay of maintenance tasks.
- Planning of additional maintenance tasks in respect of a snag on the system without its actual occurrence.
- Aiding to understanding of functioning of system under normal / faulty conditions through wide range of exercises.
- Practicing fault diagnosis / analysis / rectification procedures.
- Training made possible irrespective of availability of the actual equipment.
- Evaluating trainers under standardized conditions.
- Studying on possibilities of likely failures, their effects & maintenance procedures.
- Saving in cost of training by reducing actual usage of equipment (i.e) aircraft, helicopter, ammunition, Tanks or any such system. and low operating cost of simulator.
- Impart knowledge of system and instruments.
- Train on functional checks and use appropriate maintenance tools / means.
- Group system components through either circuit or system and identify their interactions

Functions of Maintenance Simulator

The function of a Maintenance Simulator can be classified as below :

- Start and control of simulation, introduction of fault and evaluation of trainees.
- Receive inputs from Model and test values and find the response to displays.
- Illuminate panels to simulate functioning of various designated systems.
- Built-in test of simulator under three categories viz. Pre-utilisation test, Permanent self-test and Failure free operating test.
- Conduct failure analysis / diagnosis for the simulated failures through test sets.

The operating modes of a Maintenance Simulator can be categorized as under :

- Animation mode - To demonstrate the operation of the systems by Illuminating the respective sub-system/ LRU appropriately.
- Connect mode - To enable failure free operation of the systems to be checked by using simulator tests.
- Failure Analysis mode - To enable development of failures analysis and method of failure tracing.

The Instructor normally initiates the simulation process through the Instruction console and selects operational modes / specific system panel / malfunction.
