for “L” shape defect, feature limits that follow the shape of the defect). Interaction criteria match the feature shape. Also, merge of scan files which will make it possible to use two scanners working in a same positioning model and merge scan data so that the complete part can be analysed. This will increase productivity by reducing acquisition and calculation times and also increases accuracy over long pipe segments, says the company. Adding to the new features is force to corroded area.
Tis functionality provides high flexibility to define corrosion pattern. In a few clicks, an experienced user can actually prevent the virtual pit gauge functionality from using some particular points; and virtual pit gauge that has been enhanced with interactive operation messages providing instant feedback to operator about the soſtware configurations. Critical areas are automatically identified in the 2D view.

Ancillary equipment Cargotec gets repeat
business from China In a bid to build the most efficient bulk carriers on the market, China Navigation has returned to Cargotec for 16 electrically-driven bulk versions of its variable frequency drive MacGregor cranes. The order was received in the second quarter 2012 order intake, for its new series of four 39,500dwt handy sized bulk carriers, Bdelta37 type. The China Navigation Company Pte Co Ltd (CNCo) has specified electrically-driven variable frequency drive (VFD) versions of MacGregor bulk handling cranes from Cargotec. The Bdelta37 vessels will be constructed at Chengxi Shipyard in China and are scheduled for delivery in 2013 and 2014. Each will be equipped with four GLBE 3026-2 MacGregor cranes.
There are options
open for a further six vessels.

22 Ancillary equipment Stena uses Solasolv
Stena Transit is the final vessel for Stena’s North Sea major investment programme. The project involved the investment of approximately €1 billion over a five year period and consisted of several new vessel orders and modifications to vessels in the existing Stena fleet. Solar Solve Marine was chosen to supply their
Solasolv SOLASAFE product to both Stena Transporter and Stena Transit. The vessels are RoRo cargo and passenger
vessels with an overall length of 212m at a beam of 26.7m and a draught of 6.3m. With five cargo decks the vessels’ freight capacity is 30% larger when compared to existing vessels. Both vessels were built at Samsung Heavy Industries in South Korea at a cost of approximately €110 million (US $135million) each and were delivered with 33 SOLASAFE sunscreens installed at the navigation bridge windows.

overall 3D mechanical models. This will allow electrical engineering teams to collaborate during product development, streamline the design phase, and reduce product delays, resulting in more consistent and standardised designs, lower costs, and faster time-to-market, says the company. SolidWorks Electrical provides new capabilities
with a 2D schematic design tool for electrical system architecture and planning that simplifies electrical design with a dynamic,
context-
sensitive user interface, providing the ability to quickly turn concepts into detailed designs. It identifies problems immediately with real time error detection which prevents costly scrap and rework. It also allows for easier and more accurate creation of schematics with a library of more than 500,000 standard electrical parts and enables multiple people to work on the same project at the same time.
