Web Fabrication Line - Results of a Feasibility Study (The National Shipbuilding Research Program)

Abstract

In 1974 OXYTECHNIK designed a web fabrication system comprising equipment for mechanized handling and welding stiffeners to plates and a conveying system. This first concept was the basis for a feasibility study to investigate the possibilities of highly mechanized respectively automatic fabrication of webs for building ships. This paper will discuss this feasibility study: the history, requirements, result, description, special features, and conclusion.
