December 19, 2022Intelligent Digital Shipyard from Dassault and Samsung Heavy Industries
Dassault Systèmes and Samsung Heavy Industries signed an agreement. Under the agreement, Samsung Heavy Industries will develop a “smart shipyard” system based on digital transformation technology.
Dassault Systèmes will form an advisory group for digital transformation in collaboration with Samsung Heavy Industries’ Smart SHI team. The advisory group, which includes experts from Dassault Systèmes’ local and global headquarters and core technologies, will define and develop the processes and tools needed to develop the smart shipyard project.
The Smart Shipyard project will optimize the timing and execution of shipyard operations, while speeding up production and assembly processes, facilitating and automating the information flow required for construction.
Jung Nam Lee, Director of Digital Transformation at Samsung Heavy Industries, said: “Automation systems have been proven to greatly impact business efficiency across all industries. The smart shipyard, which will be in the shipbuilding industry, will help reduce construction costs and increase the quality of ships. We plan to accelerate innovation in shipbuilding”
Based on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, Dassault Systèmes’ smart shipyard will support the digital network by integrating various data sources and real-time operational information. The virtual twins of the ships and the shipyard’s virtual twins will be connected to each other, so that business processes will be automated and standardized with artificial intelligence.
François-Xavier Dumez, Vice President, Marine and Offshore Industry, Dassault Systèmes, said: “It is critical to accelerate the transformation of the Korean shipbuilding industry with new and advanced technologies. Thanks to this transformation, we will be able to maintain our leading position in the production and quality of complex ships. Collaborating with Samsung Heavy Industries, which we are proud to support on this journey, will allow us to introduce and apply our superior marine industry solution experience and bring a new approach to the shipbuilding industry in Korea.”
