Digital Twin Powered Operator Training
The DataMesh Simulator Platform offers flexible training solutions with 6DOF, 3DOF, and simplified non-movement versions. Using digital twins and immersive simulations, it enhances learning efficiency, reduces equipment wear, and minimizes risks, empowering businesses to improve safety and operational excellence.
Built on top of a 6-DOF motion platform, full physics, audio, and vibration simulation, DataMesh Simulator Platform can leverage the machine's original cab and real operating system interface with no experience trade-off.
Traditional heavy equipment training requires in-person trainers. Travel and lodging costs, trainer personnel costs, and foreign language barriers hurt training efficiency. With self-instructed courses and multi-language support, such costs can be driven down significantly.
Compared with traditional heavy machinery operator training that uses a real machine and brings the risk of accident, DataMesh Simulator Platform helps new operators grow their skills without safety concerns.
Instead of consuming diesel or gas, the DataMesh Simulator Platform is powered by electricity. Not only using clean energy, but the cost can also be driven down to less than 1/10 compared with the traditional training method.
Practical applications and proven success scenarios across industries.
SANY is one of the heavy machinery industry leaders. Overseas heavy machinery training and support poses a challenge due to lack of professional operator training. Based on the DataMesh Simulator Platform, 6-DOF Drill Rig Simulator training was delivered for multiple models.
Sunward adopted DataMesh Simulator to train operators on rotation drills and other complex machinery using immersive digital twin technology. The platform reduced training time while minimizing risks and costs by enabling virtual, step-by-step practice.
DataMesh Simulator Platform is deployed at customer sites including Beijing (China) and Changsha, Hunan (China), with additional locations across the Asia-Pacific region.

| Metric | Impact | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Training cost per operator | ↓ 60–80% vs. on-equipment training | No production interruption, no safety risk |
| Time to operator competency | ↓ 40% with immersive practice | VR simulation vs. classroom + on-the-job |
| Safety incident rate | ↓ 50% for trained operators | Industry VR safety training benchmarks |
| Equipment damage during training | → 0 with virtual-only practice | No real equipment exposure during learning |
| Certification pass rate | ↑ to 95%+ first attempt | Standardized simulation-based assessment |
Due to its size and complexity, simulators are customized case by case. The first step is to create a digital twin of the real product. It can then be built in batch depending on requirements. Contact us to get a quote.
Yes. For non-branded simulators (generic drilling rigs, tower cranes, excavators), you can directly purchase through DataMesh. For branded machinery simulators (SANY, Sunward), you need to purchase through the original equipment maker who owns the IP of training content.
Yes. DataMesh Simulator Platform is a modular system that can be designed and assembled in separate locations.
