Intergraph Introduces SmartMarine 3D for Marine Industries
Next-generation software streamlines design processes,
resulting in lower costs, faster design and improved delivery
HUNTSVILLE,
AL, Sep 19, 2007 - Intergraph Corp. introduced today SmartMarine 3D, its
next-generation software that streamlines design processes, resulting in
lower costs and faster delivery for the shipbuilding and offshore
industries.
The announcement was made in conjunction with the 13th International
Conference on Computer Applications in Shipbuilding , ICCAS 2007, in
Portsmouth, United Kingdom.
Previously known as IntelliShip, SmartMarine offers improved modeling,
detailing and manufacturing capability for offshore devices and ships for
unrivaled productivity and user friendliness.
SmartMarine provides a multidiscipline, integrated and seamless design
environment that reduces costs and shortens project schedules for
shipbuilders and offshore design firms alike. SmartMarine couples
engineering, automatic drawings generation, production planning and
manufacturing.
“SmartMarine is the most advanced marine design solution in the market
today. It’s a next-generation, full 3D system, not ‘2 1/2 D’ as is the case
with some other, old-fashioned systems that are still used in the marine
industry,” said Gerhard Sallinger, president, Intergraph Process, Power &
Marine. “The new product branding from IntelliShip to SmartMarine reflects
the investment in the solution by leading marine systems clients, such as
Keppel FELS of Singapore, COSCO Shipyard Group of China or Greenland Group
in Norway, to design ships and offshore devices more effectively.”
“Intergraph solutions have been expanded to support the offshore
industry, with additional features for manufacturing and production planning
and outputs, as well as modeling, detailing and manufacturing enhancements,”
Sallinger said. “Any marine structure, whether it’s naval or commercial
ships, offshore platforms, semi-submersibles or FPSOs, can be delivered
faster and better using SmartMarine.”
Originally derived from the world’s leading plant design solutions,
proven in the most complex and demanding landside process and power plants,
Intergraph software has expanded and evolved to meet the needs of the
world’s leading shipbuilding and offshore companies and classification
societies. Users such as Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI) or the Odense Steel
Shipyard Group have significantly reduced engineering time, rework errors
and material costs. Customers also foresee continued productivity
improvements by using SmartMarine.
“The shipbuilding and offshore industries simply deserve better solutions
than the outdated products still being used today. We believe that
SmartMarine represents a giant step forward for the productivity of the
industry,” Sallinger said.
