FORKLIFT TRAININGAMPLIFIED
Not all virtual reality forklift simulators are the same. Most are just a game, desiged to pretend to teach forklift driving and safety, but in reality they fall way short of a real training tool. The forklift simulator from Virtual Forklift is designed by forklift trainers for forklift trainers, and can train forklift operators the proper and safe way to operate a Powered Industrial Truck!
The system is designed to be modular, with easy to setup and implement. This system is great for companies that want to provide a safe environment for new hire training, for staffing agencies that want to not only certify, but test candidate skills. Highschools, colleges and trade schools can also benifit, since this system is the only one that has a full forklift safety cirriculum available designed to integrate with Google Classroom or your own LMS. Don't just buy a single dimension toy, look at a real virtual solution with the forklift simulator from Virtual Forklift.
Forklift University is an authorized dealer for Virtual Forklift, this ensures that your training is from your OSHA compliant training providor, not a gamer that has never certified an operator in real life.

Why Virtual Forklift?
By Trainers for Trainers
“Tools not Toys, serious training tools for serious training”
Forklift University and other forklift training dealers came together to develop the only forklift simulator designed by trainers. This simulator allows us and our customers to provide real-life virtual training.
We developed a forklift simulator to comply with OSHA and ANSI guidelines. It provides training modules that teach real-life industry skills and address training needs in a danger-free virtual workplace.
More Productivity Less VR Sickness
Most forklift simulators, especially the ones using Oculus have a major flaw! Yes, it is true; they can make you sick if you are sensitive to VR sickness. Many other companies use flat TV screens to reduce this effect.
Virtual Forklift solution to provide a better user experience is we use very high resolution and professional quality equipment such as the HTC VIVE Pro2. This Virtual Reality (VR) headset system boasts ultra-high resolution, like wearing a 5K TV in front of your eyes. Combined with a high frame per second (FPS) display and ultra-high-resolution graphics, VR sickness is reduced by over 90%.
Alienware Inside
All Virtual Forklift Simulators are powered by the top of the fastest possible Alieware computer combined with the most advanced and fastest graphics card from NVIDIA (4080).
With top of the line computers our systems can reach 100fps, reducing VR sickness and providing the best possible operator experience. By comparison, Oculus is lucky to get to 50fps, causing VR sickness in most people when driving a forklift simulator.
Trainers LOVE the Virtual Forklift Simulator

Training Modules
Because the system is modular, customers may purchase training in bundles or individually. Additional modules can be added at any time, and every customer has access to ALL modules for the first 30 days to evaluate and select the modules best suited for their training program.
Modules are divided into Standard or Advanced. Standard modules are designed to provide the basic operation for a task, while Advanced modules teach advanced concepts or special attachment use. Download the Virtual Forklift Simulator brochure for additional information on the available modules.
Short Modules for Targeted Training
The Virtual Forklift Simulator training concept is based on short, specific training skill modules utilizing the idea of building individual skill sets that teach operator safety skills that can be applied in their workplace.
