The National Shipbuilding Research Program, Proceedings of the REAPS Technical Symposium Paper No. 11: AUTOKON at a Small Yard

Abstract

There are two general subjects that will be covered in this paper - justification of a computerized mould loft for the small shipyard and implementation. The justification will be brief and figures represented in this portion are not actual figures obtained from Port Weller records, but are superficial numbers used only to give the basic ideas of how the eventual purchase of the Autokon system was justified at Port Weller Dry Docks. The implementation portion will be an actual account of our use of numerical control programming starting from December 1973, when the part and nest programs were first obtained from Shipping Research Services.
