What are the characteristics of the ship repair industry?

Author:


The ship repair industry has many characteristics. The physicochemical processes of new and repaired products will be fundamentally different when they perform their functions. For example, if we analyze only the basic components of the product that determine the service life, without taking into account the structural changes caused by sudden failures, it is clear that the new product parts and components will have the same wear and tear every instant (if there is no failure), and the corresponding performance. After the repair of the product, its components and parts in the product repair process whether new or repaired, in terms of structural variation and wear are different.

Ship repair and shipbuilding, compared to the product variety, process procedures and procedures are more diverse. For example: repairing the surface of worn parts; assembling repaired parts; and the additional inspection work that comes with it; shipping equipment to the workshop for repair and transportation back to the ship, etc. If we take into account the preparation work inherent to ship repair, it is increasingly important to take additional measures to stabilize the production process at a given quality level... Based on the experience of reproducing quality indicators in the repair process, the repair work cannot change the structure of the product and the requirements for its functionality. Therefore, the function, standardized and regulated indicators, patent regulations, etc., must still reach the same level as the new product after the repair, while the process and economic indicators are clearly different from those of the new product. Due to the economic feasibility of ship repairing enterprises or the possibility of production fishing, the reliability indexes of new products and repaired products are not exactly the same. The reliability index of the repaired product is always lower than that of the first time it is produced.
