For business

Turnkey deployment. You open the box, we have done the rest

From logistics and health and safety, through HR, to the management board — everyone sees specific, measurable benefits.

Important for management

  • ROI in months — the cost of training 1 person falls below €15 at a scale of 100 employees.
  • Zero downtime — training does not tie up a forklift, docks or the warehouse.
  • Fewer accidents — new employees are most at risk in their first month; in VR the practice itself carries no risk.
  • Data — error reports after each scenario instead of a subjective assessment.
  • Scaling — one VR set trains 10+ people in rotation; 2–3 sets train a team in parallel.
Let’s calculate the ROI for your company

Logistics / Warehouse

Traditional training takes a forklift, aisles and an instructor out of use. VR takes a few m² while the warehouse works at full capacity.

Operators

Beginner operators’ mistakes generate losses. In VR a trainee can drop a virtual pallet a thousand times — without cost or stress.

Training centres

Practical classes without owning a real forklift. Trainees repeat scenarios until they succeed before the UDT exam.

Health & safety

Practising risky manoeuvres and emergency situations in an environment that forgives every mistake.

HR / Training

A unified onboarding programme without using experienced operators as instructors. Progress reports for every trainee.

Education

Technical and vocational schools: safe training for students before contact with a real forklift. In Poland the purchase qualifies for grants.

From the manager’s decision to the operator’s last manoeuvre in VR

The simulator supports business, education and training centres — from onboarding to preparation for the UDT exam.

For business leaders

Profitability that starts in VR

Reduce onboarding costs and eliminate the risk of damage before the operator gets on a real forklift. One VR set trains the whole team in rotation.

For HR and onboarding

Objectivity based on data

Speed up the onboarding of new operators. Error reports after each scenario show who is ready for work.

For operators

Confidence without stress

Practise manoeuvres, transport and loading in an environment where a mistake costs nothing. You get on a real forklift with habits already formed.

For health, safety and quality

Fewer incidents on the shop floor

New employees are most exposed to injuries in their first month. VR lets them build safe habits before they enter the hall.

VR forklift simulator — how it differs from a game and from a course in the yard

The forklift simulator in its VR version is not a game: it reproduces the sensitivity of the steering wheel, the mast levers, the accelerator and the brake, and exam mode checks the same activities that the UDT examiner assesses — the pre-drive check, manoeuvres in an aisle, lifting a pallet and putting it down at height, driving with a load that limits visibility.

A forklift course in VR does not replace the state exam, but it shortens the practical part: the trainee does dozens of repetitions without the cost of fuel, forklift wear and an occupied hall, and the instructor sees a report from every attempt. This page describes a product ready for deployment; we compared simulators and the market in the article (in Polish) VR forklift simulators.

Frequently asked questions

Does using the application require technical knowledge?

No. Launching and using it is intuitive — anyone can use it without previous VR experience. We provide instructions and technical support.

What are the hardware requirements?

The simulator runs on Meta Quest 2, 3 and 3S headsets — it needs no computer or additional devices. Optionally the station can be extended with a steering wheel, pedals and a gearbox (HOTAS) — this option requires a separate quote.

Can I install the application myself?

Yes. After purchase you will receive an e-mail with an activation code and instructions for assigning the application to a Meta account. The whole process takes 15 minutes at most.

Can I reproduce my warehouse layout in the application?

The application contains ready-made scenarios and three fixed VR environments. If you need to reproduce your own warehouse space or add your own procedures, we will prepare a dedicated version — this service is charged separately and requires a consultation.

How long does the training take?

The training consists of many scenarios of 5–15 minutes. Modules can be done in any order and repeated many times — without interrupting the warehouse’s daily work.

Does the application force tasks to be done correctly?

No — the user can make mistakes, as in reality. After each scenario a detailed report is generated with a list of errors and recommendations for improvement, so the trainee improves in subsequent attempts.

Can several users use the same licence?

Yes — the licence is assigned to a device, not to a person. With one headset you can train many employees in rotation. Each additional headset requires a separate licence.

Can the licence be transferred to another headset?

Transferring a licence is possible only in cooperation with us — in justified cases (damage, hardware replacement). The system prevents one licence from being used in rotation on many VR sets.

I don’t have VR headsets — can I buy them from you?

Yes. We offer Meta Quest headsets with the application, a 24-month warranty and door-to-door service — if a device fails, we deliver a replacement within 48 hours (in Poland).

Will the application be updated?

Yes. We release compatibility updates whenever the headset software requires it, and at least once every 24 months we provide an update that extends the training content.

What does technical support look like?

Support from Monday to Friday, 8:00–16:00 (CET): by phone +48 663 575 492 or by e-mail office@epicvr.pl. We also offer staff training in using the headsets and the simulator — online or on site.

Can the training be adapted to other roles?

Forklift VR is designed exclusively for forklift operators. For picking, packing and other warehouse processes we recommend VR Logistics Process Simulator.

Can I test the app before buying?

Yes — we offer free 7-day test access and a free demo presentation. Book through the form above.

What are the health and safety requirements for VR training?

A space of approx. 2×2 m, a training supervisor, a short introduction and breaks between sessions. A checklist is included in the deployment package.

How much work does deployment require on our plant’s side?

A minimum. We deliver headsets configured and ready to use, or activate the licence with a code on your hardware within 24 h. The app runs standalone — no computer, no integration with IT infrastructure, no involvement of the IT department. Operation comes down to putting on the headset and choosing a scenario.

What about servicing — what if a headset gets damaged on the shop floor?

Meta Quest headsets are off-the-shelf hardware available immediately — replacing a damaged unit costs a fraction of repairing a classic simulator. The licence is tied to an account: you log in on a new device and carry on training. We provide technical support and replaceable hygiene covers.

Won’t employees complain of dizziness in VR?

We design scenarios for comfort: sessions last from a few to a dozen or so minutes, exercises are done on the spot (no artificial locomotion), and interactions mirror natural hand movements. In practice a negligible share of users report discomfort, and rotating stations gives natural breaks.

Frequently asked questions

Forklift training in VR — FAQ

The most common questions about the forklift operator simulator in virtual reality. Didn’t find an answer? Write to us — we reply within 24h.

What is the VR forklift simulator?

Forklift VR is a training application that lets you prepare operators safely and realistically for work with a forklift in a virtual warehouse — without the risk of damaging equipment or endangering health. The operator puts on a Meta Quest 2, 3 or 3S headset and practises operating the forklift, transport, loading and warehouse processes with 1:1 controls (steering wheel, levers, accelerator, brake). The application is developed by EpicVR, a Polish VR software developer operating since 2013.

Does the application prepare for the UDT exam?

Yes. The simulator includes an exam mode that prepares for the Polish UDT exam — it reproduces the procedures checked during the state exam (fastening the seat belt, handbrake, observation when reversing, safe load transport). The application does not grant UDT certification — it is issued only by the Office of Technical Inspection (UDT) after passing the official exam. VR serves as a safe training tool that lets operators practise the procedures many times before taking the exam.

How much does forklift training in VR cost?

There are two billing models. Subscription: €125 net per month per station — flexible deployment without a large initial investment. Perpetual licence: €1,250 net per station — a one-off purchase, no subscription, yours to keep. You will get an exact quote for your number of stations in contact us.

Which environments and scenarios does the simulator cover?

The simulator offers three training environments: a small hall, a logistics centre and an outdoor yard. The operator practises operating basics, transporting and manoeuvring loads, loading and unloading, and UDT exam mode. Controls are reproduced 1:1 — steering wheel, levers, accelerator, brake. The application is also compatible with dedicated HOTAS stations for full immersion.

Who is this training for?

Logistics and manufacturing companies — training and upskilling forklift operators without tying up real equipment and the warehouse. Technical and vocational schools training logistics technicians — safe training before contact with a real forklift. Operator training centres — a supplement to practical classes. EpicVR’s VR solutions are used by industry leaders including KGHM, ArcelorMittal and JSW.

What are the benefits compared with traditional training?

VR training eliminates the risk of accidents and damage to expensive equipment during learning, does not tie up a real forklift or the warehouse (no operational downtime) and allows exercises to be repeated any number of times. The trainee can make mistakes safely in VR instead of on a real shop floor. When one set is used in rotation, the cost of training 1 person can fall below €15.

Which VR headsets are needed and how do I activate the application?

The application runs on Meta Quest 2, 3 and 3S headsets — including the cheaper Quest 2, which lowers the entry threshold. The purchase process is simple and requires no technical knowledge: you choose a licence, pay and receive an e-mail with an activation code, with which you launch the application on the headset in about 15 minutes.

Can I test it before buying?

Yes. EpicVR offers free 7-day test access and a free demo presentation, during which we show how the application works and match the configuration to your company or institution. Book a demo →

Can the purchase be financed from a subsidy?

In Poland, companies can use funds for employee skills development (including the National Training Fund and regional funds). For Polish vocational and technical logistics schools the purchase qualifies for programmes such as Cyfrowy Uczeń and EU projects. EpicVR helps choose the funding source and prepare the documentation.
