Machined Products - Ship Hull Prefabricated Sections

Ship hull prefabricated sections, a type of machined product, are common modular components in modern shipbuilding. They are made from large steel plates that are bent, welded, and assembled, and are typically stored and handled in shipyards or port environments. These curved steel plates are formed using processes such as line heating or hydraulic bending to create the hulls arcuate structures, such as the bow or side sections. The primary purpose of these prefabricated sections is to serve as the basic building blocks for assembling various types of large ships, such as container ships, tankers, bulk carriers, or cruise ships. These sections constitute the main framework of the ship, providing buoyancy, stability, and load-bearing capacity, supporting global cargo transportation, maritime trade, military vessels, or passenger voyages.
