HID Shipyard's construction of a large dredger has entered a critical stage of on-site installation.

The main structure assembly of the key cutter suction dredger project, constructed by HID Shipyard, was successfully completed at the project site today. This marks that the vessel has officially entered the crucial stage of equipment integration and system acceptance, laying a solid foundation for its subsequent timely delivery and service to the national waterway construction and port dredging projects.

As another masterpiece of HID Shipyard in the high-end engineering dredger field, this dredger integrates an efficient and energy-saving electric drive system with an intelligent dredging control system. During this on-site installation, the project team overcame multiple challenges such as site limitations and high precision in hoisting large components. The installation process adopts a modular segmented construction technology. The key cutter head and the mud pump unit achieve a "zero-gap" connection through precise hydraulic alignment technology. After testing, all core installation data are superior to the design standards.

Since the project was launched, the technical team of HID Shipyard has closely collaborated with the on-site construction party to formulate a detailed "two-party plan" for both floating and fixed installations. Especially in the positioning operations of core systems such as the positioning pile trolley and the sludge discharge pipeline, the staff use real-time three-dimensional measurement technology to make dynamic adjustments to ensure the millimeter-level positioning of the 10,000-ton structural components in the environment where water and land meet. The entire installation process was safe, efficient and orderly, fully demonstrating HID Shipyard's system integration capabilities in the field of complex engineering vessel assembly.

The on-site project manager of HID Shipyard said, "The successful installation of this dredger is a vivid practice of the company's concept of 'manufacturing heavy equipment with precision'." Not only did we ensure the progress of the project, but we also integrated quality and safety into every process. Next, the team will comprehensively carry out mooring tests and the joint debugging of the dredging system, striving to enable this "dredging tool" to set sail in the blue ocean as soon as possible and provide more efficient and environmentally friendly dredging solutions for global customers.

With the subsequent operation of this vessel, HID Shipyard's brand influence in the field of special engineering ships will be further expanded. HID Shipyard will also continue to be committed to technological innovation and lean manufacturing, and export more high-quality and highly adaptable Marine engineering equipment to domestic and international markets.
