In the whole development process of shipbuilding manufacturing technology, due to the continuous progress of manufacturing technology and design technology, it has been divided into three stages. At present, it is in the fourth stage, and the fifth stage in the future is forming, that is, higher level shipbuilding technology.
Considering the latest trend of agile manufacturing technology and the research and development of new generation shipbuilding technology in foreign countries, experts in China's shipbuilding industry have put forward the following development stages of shipbuilding model based on shipbuilding mode, intensive production factors of enterprises, production process with intermittent boundary and prediction of future development
The first stage: system oriented shipbuilding mode: bulk berth, wharf decoration and whole ship painting.
Phase 2: system and area oriented shipbuilding mode: block construction, pre assembly, pre painting.
The third stage: region, type and phased shipbuilding mode: lane construction, regional loading, regional painting.
The fourth stage: the intermediate stage of product oriented: shell, outfit assembly and coating integration.
The fifth stage: product oriented phase: design and manufacturing integration.
The first and second stages belong to traditional shipbuilding technology, the third and fourth stages belong to modern shipbuilding technology, and the fifth stage belongs to future shipbuilding technology. Modern shipbuilding mode can be understood as manufacturing based on master plan and optimization theory, applying group technology principle, taking intermediate products as guidance and organizing production according to regions. The loading operations of shells are separated orderly in space to realize design, production and production. Integrated management, balanced and continuous assembly shipbuilding.
