Classification culture ABDOMINAL and also shipbuilder Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI) have actually authorized a brand-new joint growth program (JDP) arrangement to establish 3D model-based studies.
The finalizing of the brand-new arrangement complies with growth of a paperless 3D model-based style and also testimonial procedure that finished a JDP authorized at Gastech in Houston, Texas, in September 2019.
The job currently relocates right into the following stage currently with pilot 3D model-based studies of an LNG provider.
“We are excited to be extending this technology to Class survey to further demonstrate reduction of paper documentation is feasible,” stated Patrick Ryan, ABDOMINAL Senior Vice President, Global Engineering and alsoTechnology “These projects demonstrate that ABS and SHI can support the design, review, and now survey during construction of ship structure using 3D models in place of 2D drawings. Together, SHI and ABS have invested in proving these fully digital approaches will facilitate delivery of next generation class services with reduced program risk and increased quality and safety. This next step of using 3D digital solutions in the survey process will complete the safety cycle during construction.”
“A 3D model-based Design and Approval Process will change the traditional labor-intensive shipbuilding industry to a digitalized high-tech industry, based on the flow of digitalized 3D model data, in order to increase efficiency, safety and risk management at work. SHI have been applying 3D model-based Design process for a couple of years and we are now preparing to implement 3D model-based construction and survey, to achieve a high quality and safer environment throughout the whole process of shipbuilding in our shipyard. This can be achieved by seamlessly applying advanced digital technology from engineering until delivery, including Class survey,” stated Jong H. Youn, SHI’s EVP & & Head of Engineering Division.
The job remains in line with SHI’s Smart SHI campaign, which aims to develop a digitalized and also future-oriented shipyard with an entirely drawing-less production line that guarantees electronic connection of all incorporated options and also allows cyber-physical production systems.
