FSUE "Rosmorport" shared its development plans for the digital shipyard at the Onega Shipbuilding and Ship Repair Plant (OSSRZ) during the "Arctic - Regions" forum.
Fleet Advisor Dmitry Ugrenyuk announced the start of creating the first digital shipyard on the basis of OSSRZ in 2021, the goal of which is to introduce advanced technologies for the construction of modern vessels, primarily for the Arctic regions. The project, funded under the state program "Development of the Transport System", envisages doubling labor productivity and increasing the number of vessels under construction from three to eight per year.
Digital modernization includes the introduction of new technologies such as robotic welding and automated process control. OSSRZ will receive a new line for the production of flat sections with accelerated robotic welding and a complex of universal robotic laser-arc welding. Ship metric systems will be used to evaluate and correct the assembly process of ship structures, and automated overhead cranes and industrial monitors will simplify the work with metal and the visualization of the assembly process.
It is also planned to reconstruct the open slipway and inclined slipway, dredge the water area, and build a new building for electrical and outfitting production, equipped with modern automated storage systems and robotic equipment for cleaning and painting ship hulls.
It is expected that the OSSRZ project will become an example of an enterprise actively using digital technologies, creating more than 600 new jobs and meeting high standards of environmental and industrial safety.
