Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha ("NYK") and its group company MTI Co., Ltd. ("MTI"), in collaboration with Smert Design Co. Ltd. ("Smert Design"), have launched a trial to utilize 3D models bet365 出 金 条件e initial design phase of ship construction.

In this trial, as part of the joint research project "Ship Design Streamlining Project by Front Loading,"* the three companies will implement the "Basic Design Platform"** (hereinafter "BDP") into bet365 出 金 条件hip design software CADMATIC*** and use it to design an LPG tanker for Kyoei Tanker Co., Ltd. to be built by Murakami Hide Shipbuilding Co., Ltd.

This trial aims to model 3D design information of existing similar and sister vessels and facilitate smooth decision-making by both shipyards and shipping companies for the exchange of requests, ideas, comments, etc., on bet365 出 金 条件ame system for the design applicable to this ship.

By visualizing the completed ship at an early design stage, bet365 出 金 条件hip design can be understood intuitively. Furthermore, use of bet365 出 金 条件ame system by all parties involved reduces the work and processes required for design. This enables earlier decision-making regarding ship design, which has become more complex recently.

In addition, by utilizing the 3D design as a 3D model-based ship management tool called "Digital Finished Plans" and by converting the finished plans,**** which were conventionally delivered as 2D drawings after completion of bet365 出 金 条件hip, into 3D, we expect to reduce the workload on crew members in understanding the drawings.

The conventional ship design process has been a long-established method in which bet365 出 金 条件hipping company repeatedly reviews the plan drawings designed by bet365 出 金 条件hipyard for approval. Although this method has been established for many years, it has been a challenge to shorten the construction period because of the approval process and the time required for the related parties to understand the drawings.

The two companies will verify the effectiveness of BDP in reducing workload and improve bet365 出 金 条件ystem based on the results. In the future, the two companies will contribute to DX in bet365 出 金 条件hipbuilding and shipping industries through the widespread use of this system.
