HD Hyundai Heavy Industries Receives Certification for 3D Printing Component Manufacturing Technology
Post summarized by durumis AI
- HD Hyundai Heavy Industries has obtained the world's first certification from the American Bureau of Shipping for its 3D printing technology in the ship MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) sector.
- The company is undertaking a technology development and demonstration project to manufacture ship parts using 3D printing during operation, which will continue until 2025. It has received recognition for its technological capabilities through the NTQ (Naval Technical Qualification) Level 2 certification.
- Through this certification, HD Hyundai Heavy Industries plans to lead the domestic ship MRO business sector and expand its 3D printing business in collaboration with institutions in Singapore.
Obtained NTQ (New Technology Qualification) Stage 2 certification from American Bureau of Shipping (ABS)
Consortium formed with Ulsan Metropolitan City, CS CAM, etc., with completion scheduled for December 2025
World's first certification for 3D printing technology utilized in the ship MRO field
HD Hyundai Heavy Industries has developed a technology that produces necessary parts using 3D printing on operating vessels, receiving the world's first new technology certification from the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS).
HD Hyundai Heavy Industries recently announced that its ‘3D Printing System for Rapid MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) Response within Operating Vessels’ has received NTQ (New Technology Qualification) Stage 2 certification from the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) in Singapore.
The certification ceremony held in Singapore was attended by Lee Hwan-sik, Head of Ship Design Division at HD Hyundai Heavy Industries, Gu Hai, Vice President of ABS Singapore, and Kim Dong-soo, Vice President of CS CAM, among others.
Since July last year, HD Hyundai Heavy Industries has been leading a consortium with Ulsan Metropolitan City and its affiliated institutions, CS CAM, HD Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering, HMM, and Korea Register (KR) to carry out a project titled ‘3D Printing Convergence Demonstration Technology for On-board Maintenance Part Self-Manufacturing for Operating Vessels.’
This project, supported by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy, is scheduled for completion by December 2025. It aims to develop and demonstrate a 3D printing system that allows for the rapid, on-site production of MRO-related parts on operating vessels.
Over the past year, the consortium, led by HD Hyundai Heavy Industries, has successfully completed the concept design and hazard identification study (Hazard Identification Study) for the development project, leading to a successful basic design.
The NTQ certification obtained by HD Hyundai Heavy Industries is a process by which ABS verifies the feasibility of new technologies and certifies the maturity and suitability of promising new technologies, providing guidance for the early adoption and implementation of the technology.
HD Hyundai Heavy Industries has received recognition for its technological excellence by completing Stages 1 (verifying the feasibility of new technologies) and 2 (evaluating technological value) of the total 5 stages of NTQ certification from ABS, a globally recognized classification society. Notably, this is the world's first certification for 3D printing technology used in the ship MRO field.
Jeon Seung-ho, Head of the Technology Division at HD Hyundai Heavy Industries, said, “Based on this certification, we will further accelerate the successful execution of the project, aiming to solidify the leading position of Korean technology in the ship MRO business sector.”
In addition to the certification ceremony, HD Hyundai Heavy Industries also discussed cooperation plans in the 3D printing business field with NAMIC, a government agency overseeing the 3D printing industry in Singapore, Nanyang Technological University, a top research-intensive university in Asia, and Pelagus 3D, an operator of a ship and marine parts ordering platform.
