A connected shipyard: Integrating sensor data in Floor2Plan
What if your shipyard were fully connected? Imagine tracking part statuses on the panel line and instantly updating the digital work package for your downstream assembly shop. Or measuring torch times in your workshops and automatically comparing them to production norms based on part metadata. Could you identify production deviations in real-time?
Floor2Plan is transforming shipyard operations by shifting from department-specific planning to process flow-centric approaches. A connected shipyard represents the next frontier in this mission. With automated detail planning and advanced scheduling capabilities, Floor2Plan enables to optimize their primary production processes, enhancing efficiency and adaptability.
This transformation is made stronger by our work with the EcoShipYard project. As part of this research initiative, we are adding real-time sensor data from production activities across the shipyard. This data includes key metrics like machine hours, energy use, emissions, and welding torch times.
This detailed dataset helps to:
- Monitor and understand actual production performance.
- Establish reliable production norms.
- Continuously improve operational efficiency and environmental sustainability.
By supporting EcoShipYard’s mission to promote sustainability, lower environmental harm, and encourage reusing materials in shipbuilding, we are giving the tools to produce ships in a greener and smarter way.
