VR SOP Training for Mining & Mineral Processing

Safer starts, fewer upsets, and better recovery rates

Mining plants handle heavy kit and complex process steps. Spark builds bespoke VR training that mirrors your crushers, screens, mills, cyclones, flotation cells, thickeners and tailings systems—so crews learn the correct sequence without risk.

Common problems we fix

• Start-up/shutdown errors: wrong order leads to blockages or trips.
• Safety risks: guarding, LOTO, confined spaces and slurry handling.
• Process stability: density control, air rates, reagent dosing and froth management.
• Maintenance: liner changes, screen swaps and isolation discipline.

How our custom build works

1. Capture your SOPs: start-up, shutdown, isolation, sampling and lab checks.
2. Create scenarios: mill start, cyclone roping, flotation recovery, thickener upset.
3. Coach in VR: step-by-step prompts matching your control-room language.
4. Measure: right-first-time, time-to-stable-state and missed critical steps.

Benefits

• Fewer incidents and faster upset recovery.
• Improved throughput and recovery performance.
• Clear, auditable competence records.
