Product Overview and Features
Hefonix-ASD 6000 ASD Tugboat Simulator allows students to gain practical experience in tug pushing, towing, salvaging, and resource management. They will learn how to safely assist high-risk vessels in navigating and docking in complex sea conditions, and how to select optimal routes and coordinate operations.
Hefonix-ASD 6000 ASD Tugboat Simulator can be used for practical training and navigation plan demonstration for pilots, captains, and tugboat operators. It supports the following functions:
- Towing and pushing coordinated operations for ASD tugboats;
- Alongside towing;
- Deployment and simulation of inland pusher fleets;
- Training of tugboat captains and pilots;
- Emergency and salvage operations;
- Marine engineering support operations.

Product Advantages
The key advantages of the Hefonix-ASD 6000 ASD Tugboat Simulator include:
- High-precision simulation of the VSP system;
- Integrated tugboat models with multiple horsepower ratings;
- Simulation of complex operating conditions and coupled environments;
- Multi-tugboat coordination and closed-loop operational processes;
- Fault simulation and emergency response training.
Main Application Scenarios
The main application scenarios of the Hefonix-ASD 6000 ASD Tugboat Simulator include:
- Tugboat operator qualification training: Conducting basic maneuvering training, advanced operational training, and emergency response training to meet the requirements of the STCW Convention.
- Navigation plan verification for port and shipping projects: Simulating tugboat configurations for large ships berthing and unberthing. By adjusting the number, power, and operating methods of tugboats, the ship's motion trajectory and safety under different operating conditions can be analyzed to optimize navigation constraints.
- Marine engineering auxiliary operation drills: Simulating the dynamic coupling effects between tugboats and large structures to verify the feasibility of operating windows and support marine engineering operation scenario training. - Pilot and tugboat coordination training: This system simulates the closed-loop process of "pilot command issuance - tugboat execution - vessel response," enabling training in command coordination in complex situations.
The Hefonix-ASD 6000 ASD tugboat simulator simulates a tugboat bridge, equipped with essential navigation and maneuvering controls. Driven by an advanced physics engine, it simulates realistic tugboat and equipment behavior, providing a comprehensive solution for improving tugboat operator skills and pilot coordination training.
