Learn what makes a successful DNV certification with this free white paper
The maritime industry - like all other industries - must face the challenges of automation and digitalisation. Whether shipping, shipping companies or the offshore industry with gas and oil: the analogue world is almost history - digital structures are establishing themselves and laying the foundation for automation concepts. Complex solutions are turning ships into autonomous factories, paving the way for shipping companies to become fully-fledged logistics providers and helping the offshore industry to harvest oil and gas fields more efficiently through automated extraction processes. The following applies to all areas: the higher the degree of automation and optimisation of these systems, the more cost-effective, sustainable and also safer companies can operate.
In order for automation to succeed under these harsh environmental conditions, components and parts sometimes have to fulfil different requirements than in traditional factory automation. This white paper presents challenges for companies and suppliers alike. The part describes how companies can fulfil the strict test criteria in order to have components certified by the relevant institutions such as DNV. The white paper also provides an outlook on the opportunities that arise for suppliers, plant manufacturers and ultimately for operators of on-board platforms and ships through the use of certified components such as cable.
chainflex® cable: 4-year guarantee & free price check
The oceans have long been part of the global economy, both through wind farms and the worldwide movement of goods. Companies that work for and in the maritime environment have to face special challenges: In addition to the Machinery Directive or the Product Safety Act, which also apply on land, the contents of the Maritime Safety Act or the Ship Safety Act are often also binding for them.
In order to enable plant manufacturers and suppliers to smoothly implement the various legal requirements, contribute to efficient project planning and ultimately enable trouble-free operation, igus has® 379 chainflex® cables, which are certified by DNV for use in the maritime environment, available from stock. These are designed for highly dynamic use in energy chains for safe operation at sea. In addition to seawater resistance, the chainflex® cables also stand for process-safe working under the influence of oil: the cables are oil-resistant in accordance with MUD NEK606, which allows maintenance-free pumping on drilling platforms and also ensures operator safety.
In addition to the extensive test procedures of the DNV classification society, the cables have also been tested under real conditions in the igus® test laboratory. They therefore come with the unique chainflex® guarantee of 4 years. There is therefore an optimum solution in the cable programme for every maritime application. The easiest way to find out which cable is best for your individual requirements at sea is to take part in a free chainflex® price check.
