Block Building

Loading edge technologies are applied in block construction: computer assisted desing using the latest generation 3D CAD programme, numerical control cutting system, automatic panel line, automatic welding and laser controlled sizing.

All this allows us to build with a high degree of advanced outfitting and top quality.

CUTTING AND FORMING

PLASMA CUTTING

Cutting by electric plasma connected to the CAD-CAM systems.

SUB-ASSEMBLIES

Automatic welding systems at sub-assembly stages of manufacture.

PANEL LINE PRODUCTION

Fully automated panel fitting and welding line.

LINE HEATING

Machine plate forming technique.

PRE-FABRICATION

LASER DIMENSIONAL CONTROL

Dimensional check systems for units, applying laser and ultra-violet ray monitoring techniques, to guarantee excellent results in block couplings and in the forms of the vessel.

OUTFITTING INTEGRATION

Integration of the outfitting starts in the initial stages of block manufacture.

LUGGING SEMI-BLOCKS

Semi-blocks with their outfitting are lugged to form the fitting unit on the stocks, to optimize the use of means and time.

PAINTWORK

PAINTING

Painting the Blocks prior to mounting on the stocks allows for considerable improvements in quality and reducing delivery periods.

ASSEMBLY

ERECTION

Applying high performance, semi-automatic welding processes with tubular and automatic wires, by submerged arc.

FINAL SITUATION OF THE BLOCK ON THE STOCKS

The dimensional statistics control methods applied to fitting blocks on the stocks ensures precision vessel structures.
