According to Dr. Lim Ser Yong, Executive Director of SIMTech, “This collaboration leverages SIMTech’s Free Form Large Format Laser Aided Additive Manufacturing capabilities, to support the offshore and marine industry, by improving the functional integrity, cost-effectiveness and responsiveness.”

At SIMTech this CNC-based technology, using a high energy laser beam, has been used to build and repair the likes of airofoil products and turbochargers. High-strength low-alloy steels, stainless steels, aluminium and titanium alloys are included in its material portfolio.

无人机检查和数字双胞胎

The Digital Twin and drone aspects of the Sembcorp project will be handled by DNV GL.

首先,将制定数字双模型,以复制特定船舶设计的所有组件和构建。有了这一点,设计师和工程师将能够快速识别潜在的优化领域,甚至突出零件,如果添加剂制造生产可以节省资金。雷电竞充值

In the second prong, drones will be programmed to aid surveyors in close-up inspections of a ship’s structure. This gives shipbuilders more data about the conditions of a vessel, and increases personnel safety when used in dangerous locations.

A national strategy

The three pronged technology plan will be put in place at Sembcorp Marine’s flagship Tuas Boulevard Yard, covering six drydocks for the building and development of next generation mega vessels and offshore rigs, and a 120,000 sq m facility fabricating up to 144,000 tonnes of steel components per year.

该技术使用d is set to become a key enabler to the city-state’s Advanced Manufacturing and Engineering (AME) strategy. Dr. Ho Chaw Sing, Managing Director of NAMIC, asserts, “Over the last several months, we have engaged with stakeholders in various strategic industry verticals in our push to industrialise AM technologies.”

“我们很高兴与Sembcorp Marine,DNV GL和Simtech建立这种合作伙伴关系,并为新加坡的主要战略部门的海洋海上/石油和天然气行业提供了支持和贡献。”
