GE wins orders for 8 PSV integrated systems

GE wins orders for 8 PSV integrated systems
Recently, GE Energy Management's Power Conversion business unit will provide integrated power generation, propulsion and dynamic positioning for the eight new offshore platform support vessels (PSV) of Singapore's maritime services company Swire Pacific Offshore Operations (Pte) Limited (SPO). ) and automation systems.

It is reported that each PSV will use the diesel-electric propulsion system to drive GE's innovative Inovelis pod propulsion unit. GE's scope of supply also includes diesel engine driven generators, main and auxiliary switchboards, propulsion motors, variable frequency drives and C Series DP and marine automation systems. The products delivered by GE will be manufactured by GE's plant in Brazil and will provide technical support, spare parts and training. The products are expected to be delivered from May 2013 to February 2014. The first PSV is expected to be commissioned in September 2013. The last one The vessel is expected to enter service in September 2014.

Press Brake

A press brake is a piece of manufacturing equipment that is used to bend sheet metal. A press brake is typically narrow and long so that large pieces of sheet metal can be bent by it. A press brake bends sheet metal by lowering a punch onto sheet metal that has been positioned on top of a die. The metal may be bent several times by a press brake until the desired form has been achieved.
Press brakes can make a variety of different bends on many different types of metals. When setting up a bending process, it is important to consider the metal type being bent, the die, the punch, and the bending force.
The metal type is important to understand because of the differing physical properties among metals. For instance, a high carbon steel will generally be less bendable by a press brake than many aluminum alloys because of the differences in ductility and strength. Metals typically have a recommended minimum bend radius that the material can be bent to without damaging it.
The die and the punch used on the press brake both have a large impact on the bending process. The die is hollow material that the metal is placed on top of prior to bending. It is a very hard and strong material that is near in shape to the desired shape of the metal being bent. The punch is a solid material that is lowered down onto the metal. Since the pressing action of the punch onto the metal and the die are what causes the metal to bend, both shapes must be accurately suited to the bending job. The correct metal shape following a press brake operation is dependent on the size and shape of the punches and dies. The dies and the punches are typically designed in such a way that they can be interchanged easily to accommodate a wide array of jobs.
