The day provided an opportunity to exchange with the naval base teams on the challenges encountered both in workshops and on board ships: confined spaces, choice of drive systems and adaptation of machining solutions to on-site operating conditions.
It was also an opportunity to present several PROTEM & SERCO solutions designed for these demanding environments.
- TTSCSB: orbital cutting and beveling machine,with a socket removal unit. Particularly suited to operations in confined spaces, especially on board submarines.
- SE25: compact pipe facing machine for machining small-diameter, thin-wall tubes in stainless steel or Inconel, in preparation for orbital welding.
- SE60NG: portable beveling and pipe facing machine designed to deliver precise and repeatable weld preparations on tubes made from various materials, including stainless steels and special alloys.
- UTG-1: Tungsten Electrode Sharpener & Grinder ensuring precise grinding and pointing for optimal electrode preparation.
On the SERCO side, Benjamin presented the TU400 electric and TU200 machines, designed for facing and boring flanges and valves, particularly those used in submarine construction.
A valuable opportunity for technical discussions, allowing us to assess our solutions against real-world operating conditions and gain a better understanding of the needs of naval industry professionals.
