DCSIM Damage Control Simulator

Get ready before it’s too late!

Realistic Training

Meteksan Defence’s Damage Control Simulator (DCSIM) provides a realistic training environment to devetop and conduct damage
control exercises to provide the shipboard personnel as part of damage control readiness and the internationally recognized
commercial and naval standards. DCSIM has unique features that are increasing the effectiveness of the training operational
efficiency and maintainability.

World #1 Damage Control Simulator

Damage Control Simulator (DCSIM) has unique features that are increasing the effectiveness of the training, operational efficiency and maintainability such as additional training capability apart from damage training, like material condition training, communications, de-smoking, causality cable laying trainings etc., adjustable water level, adjustable hull motion for speed and angle, usage of specific lightening and sound effects, preventive maintenance by recording the usage time of critical components through the automation system and timely warning the user for the related maintenance, easy fault finding system that enables pin-pointing the faulty components. fool proof and fail safe design where DCSIM is not affected from the improper usage of the trainees and DCSIM is always guaranteeing the safety of the trainees even if some fault happen during the execution, like electricity breakdown.

Meteksan Defence’s Damage Control Simulator has been selected by 4 different country’s naval forces and currently successfully operational.

Naval Damage Control (DC) capability is a critical effect for preserving the integrity, stability and maneuverability of vessels. The key
to enable these capacities is a realistic training environment for the ship’s crew to develop and conduct damage control exercises.
Consistent and realistic training produces an optimal level of readiness that prepares repair party teams to react more efficiently and effectively to actual casualties.

The system provides standardised means to train the crew from basic up to advanced level with proper and comparable evaluation reports.

System Capabilities

  • Plan, execute and evaluate different scenarios under different conditions,
  • Simulator motion system,
  • Measure and decrease crew’s response time under heavy (smoke, flooding, rolling etc.) conditions,
  • Evaluate their individual and team performances,
  • Evaluate the ability to set and maintain material condition ZEBRA,
  • Develop the ability to brief, execute, debrief and critique damage control exercises,
  • Observe, record and replay trainings through CCTV system.
