Ship Hull Inspection Robot
Application:
Inspecting the floating hull under water without the need for a diver, with the aim of determining and cleaning the ship’s hull locally.
Product Introduction:
The ship hull inspection robot was designed and built according to the requirements of the I.R.Iran shipping Lines. This robot is used underwater without the need for a diver in the periodical inspection of commercial ships’ hull.
The purpose of these inspections is checking the level of cleanliness of the hull, damages, and structural monitoring from the outside of the floating hull. Due to the high speed of the water flow in some coastal areas (such as Bandar Abbas), ROVs that were previously imported from abroad, failed to self-control and could not fulfill their mission. Therefore this robot was designed, built and tested with a different mechanism. In fact, this robot is attached to the metal body of the ship by magnetic sand and moves on it. While moving, it can monitor its position on the hull and the condition of the floating hull through cameras and sensors and report to the operator remotely. it can also clean the floating hull locally if the necessary accessories installed.
