One of the best ways to increase the effectiveness of your training program is to increase your ROI. For training situations, we define return on investment as total number of effective motion seat training hours/total cost of motion seat. The total number of effective motion seat training hours is calculated by recording the actual number of hours the seat was in use minus any downtime to the training program caused by problems with the seat. The total cost of the seat includes initial cost, installation costs, operating costs, maintenance costs, and repair costs.

Although the ACME DMS continues ACME's history of setting the standard for high quality design and construction, the initial price is highly competitive. Operating and maintenance costs, based on component and finished assembly testing, are projected to be the lowest in the industry. Favorable scheduled maintenance intervals and an industry leading MTBF and MTTR ensure that lost training time will be kept to a minimum.

The ACME Dynamic Motion Seat, benefiting from close attention to design detail and manufacturing processes, sets a new standard of value in the simulation world.

By excelling in the three critical value metrics described below, the Dynamic Motion Seat provides you with the highest Return on Investment.
