ship launching marine airbags

Merits of changlin airbags: A.Saving the investment of shipyard construction The construction of launching facilities, like traditional slideway and its underwater engineering, are very expensive.If using airbag launch, only a simple launching slip way shall be built without complex underwater engineering.

So air bag launch saves the investment of construction. B.Simple operation,saving labor and work hours Airbag launch avoids lots of trouble, such as the complex process of cleaning away the mucky soil on the surface of the slideway, covering or smearing with lubricating grease, setting slide plates and fixing the hull.

The material and working hours are reduced.Usually the preparation for airbag launch maybe finished within one or two days. The operation is simple. Air bags can be reused. Ship building cost can be reduced by air-bag launch.

C.Environmental friendly In traditional slideway launch, some distance slideway extends into underwater, which affects the flood embankment and navigation environment. Furthermore, lubricating grease mass causes water contamination. Airbag launch shortens the length of ramp way length under water. There is no emission into water.
