TSAMTO, January 12. For the first time in Russia, a digital mock-up of a nuclear submarine has been created at Sevmash (part of USC).
The project was implemented within the framework of a single design and production space created by the enterprise and four design bureaus.
The innovative technology was introduced by specialists of Sevmash, design bureaus "Severnoye PKB", "Rubin", "Malachite" and "Almaz". In the process, reverse engineering technologies, volumetric laser scanning were used, optical-electronic measurement tools were introduced. New technologies have made it possible to avoid costly and labor-intensive alterations. To introduce innovations, workplaces were re-equipped, software was purchased and installed, information and database transmission channels were established. The staff was trained in new methods of design and production preparation.
Based on a three-dimensional model of a submarine developed by Sevmash specialists, technological documentation for the manufacture of hull structures was issued, pipeline laying routes were designed, information for bending pipes on numerically controlled machines was exported, equipment was placed and the assembly and operation processes of complex mechanical engineering products were simulated.
The pilot project has shown its effectiveness. Thanks to digitalization and three-dimensional modeling, the accuracy of calculations and the efficiency of design and technological preparation of processes, as well as the degree of elaboration, have been significantly increased. The results were approved by the project Management Committee, Sevmash CEO Mikhail Budnichenko and USC CEO Alexey Rakhmanov.
Now the company is scaling up the project, new technologies and tools are being systematically introduced in production. Sevmash holds a leading position in the industry in reverse engineering and laser scanning technologies.
As noted in the press service of JSC "PO "Sevmash", digital interaction began in 2016. The task of implementing the pilot zone was implemented under the control of USC as one of the priorities.
