Shipbuilding weighing

Shipbuilding is a complex industry that uses advanced technologies to design and produce ships of all sizes and types. The shipbuilding process begins with the design of the ship, which is usually done by engineers and naval architects. They are faced with performance and safety requirements. Weighing sensors are used to determine the total mass of a vessel and to ensure that it is able to float in a stable manner. This ensures that the vessel has been constructed to withstand external forces such as waves and winds. By measuring the weight of a catamaran or yacht as it is built, it is possible to determine whether it is built in a way that minimizes its weight while maintaining its strength and stability. This can help reduce construction costs, improve performance and reduce fuel consumption once in service. These weighing solutions are reliable equipment for checking weights before launching a boat.

Yachts and catamarans are vessels that require accurate weight measurements for optimized and safe operation. Captels designs and develops specific weighing systems for the needs of naval engineers and architects. The weight of a catamaran or yacht has a direct impact on its speed, its maneuverability, its ability to navigate in difficult conditions. The most common method is continuous static weighing. This method allows the individual weight of each piece of equipment to be checked throughout the construction of the vessel. Wireless weight sensors are installed mainly under the cradles or under the hull of ships. Captels weighing solutions are accompanied by an intuitive software that allows to visualize the measurements in real time.

Weighing sensors are necessary to balance a ship as they allow the load to be distributed correctly so that the waterline remains perfect. A perfect waterline means the vessel is stable and does not take on water. This is important for the safety of passengers and crew, as well as for the vessel’s performance. If the vessel is overloaded or poorly distributed, it can bank dangerously and risk capsizing. Capts weighing sensors are an accurate and reliable way to measure the load distribution of a ship. The data is transmitted in real time to the central measurement acquisition system. The weighing software allows to calculate the center of gravity, in order to distribute the loads equally on each side of the boat.
