The Ship Design With Classification, Review, And Approval Based On 3D Models Demonstrates The Success Of Using Technology In The Sector. Damen Engineering, Bureau Veritas And NAPA Benefit From Software In Their Business.

The adoption of new technologies and modernization solutions is increasingly present in the maritime sector. Damen Engineering announced the completion of its first ship design to be created, reviewed, and approved using only 3D models, replacing the previous 2D models. This initiative is being carried out with the support of Bureau Veritas and NAPA, who leverage technology to ensure greater accuracy in the designs.

Use Of 3D Models In The Ship Design Process Marks Advances In The Maritime Sector

The modernization of processes, alongside the development of new artificial intelligence technologies, is becoming increasingly present across all sectors of the international industry.

Now, it is the turn of the maritime engineering field to seize the opportunities of the moment to enhance quality and speed in its projects.

Damen Engineering has already immersed itself in the trend and announced the completion of its first ship project created, reviewed, and approved using only 3D models.

This initiative is in collaboration with the classification society Bureau Veritas (BV) and the global maritime software provider NAPA, thus ensuring even more quality in the processes by combining the expertise of both companies.

The 2,500 m³ dredge concept is the first Damen vessel to receive BV certification using 3D Model-Based Classification (3D MBA).

This process allows societies to evaluate and approve ship designs based solely on 3D models, unlike the 2D models currently used.

Damen Engineering confirmed that it is already applying the technology to other projects following the success of the first ship project.

These projects and approvals based on 3D models are supported by NAPA’s cutting-edge technology, which allows Damen and BV to collaborate throughout the design and review process.

The main benefits of using 3D models in projects, according to Damen Engineering, NAPA, and Bureau Veritas, are time optimization and ensuring better communication of the processes.

Moreover, 3D models also eliminate a significant potential source of errors, as the company no longer needs to translate the 3D models it uses to design vessels into 2D drawings.

Thus, the development of a new ship project becomes even more accurate and faster amid the high demand in the international market.
