ROLE OF CAD TECHNOLOGY IN THE SHIPBUILDING INDUSTRY

Posted on : Feb 22, 2021

With the help of the latest technology, the shipping industry has evolved gradually which helps in the development and promotion of shop design CAD systems. Using CAD technology in shipbuilding helps in the increasing speed of construction, makes ease of designs, reduces production and designing time, minimizes cost, optimizes designing process, reuse/use of information, etc for the designing and construction of submarines, ships, and offshore platforms. CAD technology helps designers, engineers, developers, architects, etc for building and designing 3D models of cars, airplanes, ships, floating structures, submarines, bridges.

The use of CAD technology in the shipbuilding industry enables 3D models for enhancing higher productivity and efficiency. There are numerous advantages of CAD technology in the shipbuilding industry which help in reducing costs and increases productivity.

Also, 3D printing technology plays a crucial role in the development of the shipping industry because the use of the latest technology in any industry helps in its overall growth and development. Thus the shipping industry is equally growing at a rapid pace due to such advanced technologies as 3D printing through real objects that can be easily constructed using virtual 3D objects. Basically, this technology helps to produce scientific equipment, models, and small structures for different applications.

CAD integrated shipbuilding tools are basically divided, into 5 major groups:-

  1. A) Primary structure
  2. B) Hull forms
  3. C) Electrical subsystem
  4. D) Machinery/Outfitting
  5. E) Naval architecture

At C-Design, we can create 3D printable models using CAD tools on the basis of advanced tools and mandatory parameters. Kindly contacts us and share your requirements.
