It is reported that the 5,000-ton new deep-sea comprehensive scientific research vessel “Dongfanghong No.3”, which was built by China Ocean University with an investment of 690 million yuan, is one of the largest marine scientific research vessels in the world, and it will undertake the comprehensive scientific research of China’s deep sea. The important responsibility of the flagship ship. "Dongfanghong No. 3" is equipped with advanced detection systems such as water, seabed and atmosphere. It is expected to be officially put into use in 2018.
Caterpillar wins 2 generator sets for "Dongfanghong 3"
The vibration and noise levels of the scientific research ship have a direct impact on the accuracy of the scientific data. Therefore, "Dongfanghong 3" is built according to the world's most stringent underwater noise standard DNV GL Silent-R, which puts higher requirements on the mute noise reduction of the power system.
After evaluating a number of vendors, Ocean University chose Caterpillar's two MaK 9 M 25 C and one MaK 6 M 20 C generator set to power Dongfanghong 3.
“The DNV GL Silent-R has very strict limits on all equipment on board, whether it is underwater noise or structural noise,” said Stephan Kroening, a noise vibration expert at Caterpillar. “We used a double compartment. The vibration arrangement allows the engine and cabin floor to be fully isolated for ultra-quiet effect."
As a leading supplier of power equipment for the marine industry, Caterpillar offers its customers a solution that guarantees that Dongfanghong 3 will work in an almost completely silent environment. To this end, the engineers of the Caterpillar Ship Kiel plant in Germany and the team of the Asia Pacific Ship Center worked closely together to design the technical solution, and finally won the customer's approval, adopting the double-layer vibration isolation layout technology.
According to the plan, the MaK generator set will be delivered to the shipyard by the end of this year. Upon completion, Dongfanghong 3 will be the first ship built in China to receive DNV GL Silent-R certification.

Of course, this is not the first ship powered by MaK and able to meet such harsh conditions. The Australian research vessel "RV INVESTIGATOR" and the Norwegian fisheries and marine research vessel "Dr. Friedtjof Nansen" also use the MaK generator set and a similar double-layer vibration isolation design. For ship engineers, designers, ship owners and shipyards around the world, MaK engines not only represent superior performance and reliability, but also mean perfect customer service and best customer value.

Gantry cranes are widely used when the lifting is needed without the cost of a building or support steel work. The gantry cranes can be placed indoors or outdoors, used for activities in steel stock yards, pre-cast segment yards, construction sites and other outdoor application.
Gantry Crane advantages
Gantry cranes with the runway located on the floor can be used where the Overhead Crane or bridge is not practical.
Gantry cranes are more cost-effective comparing with the overhead crane system.

Gantry cranes have a wide application. Gantry can be used indoors and outdoors. Gantry cranes can be used when the existing factory structure which cannot bear the wheel loads of the overhead crane; or loads needs to be handled outside the crane span and when the relocation of the crane is required after the work at a certain site is completed.
