The modern technology team Wärtsilä has actually been acquired by the City of Duisburg, Germany, to offer the most recent in simulator modern technology for inland river navigating. The simulator will certainly include 7 complete objective bridges in 2 areas within Duisburg; 6 at the Schiffer-Berufskolleg Rhein trade university, and also one at the DST Development Centre for Ship Technology and alsoTransport Systems This will certainly create one of the most modern-day inland simulator training center inEurope The order with Wärtsilä was put in the initial quarter of 2020.
Wärtsilä modern technology will certainly make it possible for inter-connectivity with various other simulators, a global equipment user interface for future growths, and also can be made use of for R&D functions. It will certainly likewise be used for innovative modelling functions with various other Wärtsilä devices, and also for preparation and also analysation jobs.
“The more realistic the training, the more capable will be the crew, which is why state-of-the-art simulation is so important. Inland waterway navigation presents a number of challenging situations, and with this simulator training these challenges can be realistically studied and prepared for,” states Hendrik Posenauer, Senior Sales Manager, Wärtsilä Voyage.

“This new SANDRA – Simulator for Advanced Navigation Duisburg Research and Application – comes at the right time and will fulfil the requirements for giving future seafarers the skills they need,” states Thomas Kr ützberg, Head of Family, Education and also Culture, Work and also Social Affairs, City of Duisburg.
All 7 bridges will adhere to the most recent CESNI (Comit é Europ éen put l’Élaboration de Standards dans le Domaine de Navigation Int érieure) needs connecting to requirements in the area of inland river navigating.
Installation and also handover of the Wärtsilä tools will certainly occur later on this year.
Wärtsilä Voyage significantly changes exactly how vessels execute their trip by leveraging the most recent electronic innovations, to provide a step-change in safety and security, performance, integrity, and also discharges.
