Floating Ship Launching Marine Inflatable Rubber Tube is an innovative technology that is widely used in the shipping industry. It is said to be introduced by the Chinese for use in emergency launching during the early 1980s. Over the years, ship launching airbags have been embraced by shipping industries in various parts of the world. This technology helps to overcome fixed launching track challenges. This technology has offered flexibility and it saves both time and effort for small and medium-sized shipyards. The technology is reliable, safe and is a good investment for shipyards. This traditional technology was only effective in the launch and landing of small and medium-sized ships but today its application is more versatile in many ways.
Ship launching marine inflatable rubber tube relies on airbags that measure usually from 0.8m to 2.5m in diameter. These airbags usually have lengths from 5.0m to 25.0m. They are used to launch ships as well as other functions in floating, salvaging and loading. The airbags are popular for launching and landing chemical tankers and cargo boats. They are also effective for moving and lifting sunken ships or salvaging vessels that are stranded. Shipyards can save in investment expenses with these versatile and portable airbags.
Ship landing for repairs with ship launching marine inflatable rubber tubes makes it possible for vessels to land in locations that were previously restricted. Vessels no longer have to land on dry docks. The airbags have been tried and tested for several years and it is now possible to launch ships that weigh between 100 tons and more than 10,000 tonnes.
Ship launching or upgrading using floating ship launching rubber tubes is an innovative ship launching technology. It overcomes the disadvantage of "end-on launching", "side ship launching", "float-out". This ship launching technology overcomes the restrictions of the fixed launching track of side-launch.
This flexible ship launching technology is accepted by more shipyards worldwide because of its advantages of saving time, saving investment, flexibility, safety. We are constantly innovating in terms of design, material usage, & manufacturing technologies throughout the years to ensure flexibility, safety, and reliability.
Up to now, more cargo vessels, barges, chemical tankers, tugboats, AHTS vessels, floating docks, and even construction caissons have all been launched using our ship launching rubber airbags. The biggest vessel launched by ship launching airbags up to 100,000DWT.
All Doowin marine floating infatable rubber ship docking rubber airbags are manufactured and tested fully compliant with ISO 14409:2011 Ships and marine technology - Ship launching air bags. To learn more technology, please kindly refer ISO 17682:2013 Ships and marine technology - Methodology for ship launching utilizing air bags
