It is reported that a system for providing intelligent ice load monitoring for ships operating in ice-covered waters will provide ship operators with tools to handle ships in a safe and efficient manner.

According to reports, this technologically advanced system will use optical sensors installed in the hull steel structure to monitor the hull load, combine the information received by the sensor with the ship's structural capabilities, and display the hull's ice load and risk to the ship operator. Levels, while also predicting loads, help operators manage ships safely and efficiently.

It is understood that this tool will be jointly developed by Aker Arctic Technology and Light Structures AS, both of which have strong technical backgrounds in their respective fields. Aker Arctic Technology is a leading icebreaker design company and a leading supplier of optical hull monitoring systems to Light Structures.

  Electric chain hoists offer the best option for lifting 5-tons or less.  When selecting an Electric Hoist you need to determine the voltage or power supply (single phase or 3-phase), capacity, lift (length of chain), suspension (hook, geared trolley, motorized trolley), pendant control length (length of push button controller), duty cycle, hoist speed, trolley speed, and beam size.  Electric chain hoists can also be configured with a weatherproofing option for the use of the hoist in an outdoor environment, a spark resistant option or a stainless steel option for the use of the hoist in a food grade environment.  Once you determine your Electric Chain Hoist specifications, you can see which manufacturers meet your requirements so you are able to buy the best product at the best price.
