Customer Background
A shipyard fitting out winches and deck cranes needed compact drive shafts that could survive constant salt-splash exposure on deck and satisfy classification documentation for each hull.
The Challenge
Salt-spray corrosion of shafts and cross bearings in continuous deck service
Very limited installation space in the winch rooms
Classification-society material and balance certificates required per vessel
Our Solution
Compact WSD 95 series selected for the tight winch-room envelopes
Marine epoxy coating over galvanizing on all machined surfaces
Sealed cross bearings with marine-grade grease
Material certificates and balance reports issued per hull number
The Results
All shafts passed the yard's incoming inspection at first presentation. Nine vessels have been equipped to date, and the yard keeps a standing spare-shaft stock supplied by us.
