Life-saving equipment

Side launching davit engineering

A side launching davit swings the boat outboard over the ship’s side and lowers it from there.

Side launching davit, 3D model

What we engineer on a side launching davit

Take the whole machine or single work packages.

Davit arms and frame

Arms, frame and pivots, checked through the full outboard movement.

Winch and brake

Hoisting winch, brake and the lowering arrangement for a controlled descent.

Boat stowage and release

Cradle, lashings and the interface with the boat’s hooks.

Load cases and test loads

Launching and recovery with heel and trim as the rule set you name defines them, and the arrangement for the proof load test.

Strength, buckling and fatigue

Hand calculation and finite element analysis of the structure, pins and connections, with assumptions and results written so a surveyor can follow them.

Foundation and interface

Bolting or welding to the deck, the loads passed into the ship structure and the interface drawing your yard needs.

If you need the davit built as well

Most clients want engineering only. Some want one party responsible until the machine is on the truck. You choose how far we go.

Engineering only

You receive the complete design package and build it in your own works or with your own suppliers.

Engineering with production follow-up

We stay on the project while it is built: supplier questions, drawing revisions, inspection of critical welds and dimensions, factory acceptance test.

Engineering and manufacturing

We have the equipment fabricated, assembled and tested by qualified workshops to our drawings and under our technical supervision, and deliver it to you with its documentation.
