关于客户
欧洲造船业的全球系统供应商
挑战
一家提供海洋电子解决方案的跨国、知识型公司正在利用工业以太网技术来帮助确保海上作业的可靠性和最佳化。该公司总部位于欧洲,在全球 20 个国家/地区拥有近 4000 名员工,为海上石油和天然气作业、商船系统以及国防和航空航天工业的各种应用生产高科技系统。该公司生产用于商船和海上设施的产品和系统,用于定位、导航、自动化以及海底勘测和监测,以及渔船和渔业研究。作为全球优质船用电子产品的主要供应商之一,其产品包括用于游艇的海图仪、用于石油钻井平台的三重冗余动力定位系统以及用于科考船的声纳和仪器系统。用于海洋应用的产品必须足够坚固以承受盐水的腐蚀作用,并能够承受过度的振动和冲击。出于这个原因,该公司只使用 DNV 和 GL 认证的产品和组件,以确保其系统能够满足海运业要求的高标准。
解决方案
声纳定位系统需要高速网络将船体单元室中的设备连接到舰桥上的其他设备。除了需要 DNV 和 GL 认证的组件外,速度和冗余也是关键考虑因素。为此,声纳定位系统使用 Moxa 的托管以太网交换机,在船体声纳系统和舰桥上的电子设备之间形成冗余网络。每个声纳单元使用一个发射换能器阵列和一个接收换能器阵列,它们连接到用于探测水下物体的主收发器。 Moxa的EDS-518A千兆网管交换机用于船体单元房连接不同的声纳设备,EDS-510A-1GT2SFP千兆网管交换机安装在舰桥上。这些交换机一起创建了一个千兆冗余环,将声纳系统连接到网桥。 EDS-518A 使用其两个千兆端口连接到 EDS-510A 的千兆端口以形成冗余千兆骨干网。 EDS-510A 上的第三个千兆端口连接到操作站以进行大量数据通信。收发器安装在船舶的不同部分,用于不同类型的应用。例如,对于反潜和水雷探测应用,收发器将位于船首附近。另一方面,对于商业和研究型船舶,收发器将位于船尾附近。以太网允许系统将信号从声纳实时传输到船桥。这对于反潜和水雷探测应用尤为重要,因为获得实时信息对于船舶及其船员的生存至关重要。产品解决方案: 1. EDS-510A 系列 7+3G 端口千兆网管型以太网交换机 2. EDS-518A 系列 16+2G 口千兆网管型以太网交换机

Drill ship power challenge: hybrid solution solves distribution issues
Aspin Kemp & Associates (AKA), a manufacturer of electrical power and control systems headquartered in Montague, PEI, encountered one with its hybrid power initiative, the first hybrid drill floor destined for installation on ultra-deepwater drill ships operated by Transocean, Swiss offshore drilling contractors. Since on-site modification was impossible and scrap recycling of any modifications was unacceptable, the enclosures had to arrive ready-to-install.

Ensures Tanker Safety and Emissions Compliance
Storage tanks are irregular in shape and a certain amount of mathematical modelling is required to get an accurate representation of volume and, more importantly, the weight of material in each tank. In addition, countries have different emission regulations, so the ships position needed to be accurately known in order to geotag emission data.

Mitsubishi Electric's Edge Computing Solution Powered by Wind River VxWorks
Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, a global leader in factory automation (FA) applications, identified edge computing as a critical component of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). The company aimed to enhance device and data security, reduce data traffic to the cloud, and enable faster response to network or device issues. In 2018, Mitsubishi Electric launched its first line of industrial hardware products designed for edge computing, the MELIPC Series. The primary development goals for MELIPC were to support the type of edge computing promoted by Mitsubishi Electric and to introduce advanced vision technology for device control. The flagship computer of the MELIPC line, the MI5000, was designed to combine real-time equipment control with high-speed data collection, processing, diagnosis, and feedback in a single machine. However, the development team needed a real-time control platform that could seamlessly integrate real-time control with proven analytic and diagnostic applications.
