Measuring session for Ampelmann L-type

Ampelmann has been a client of JB Systems for some time. In close cooperation, we are developing the control concept for various types of gangways to safely transfer personnel or equipment from a moving ship to a fixed platform. Our software allows the gangway to make a counter movement when docking. This ensures safe mooring in all situations, such as in rough waters. More than 50 systems have been built based on this control concept.

Insight

Ampelmann is currently working on renewing the power supply of the L-type. The L-type is 100% electrically powered from the ship’s electrical system. Disruption to the electrical network is therefore an important aspect. In order to gain more insight into this, we set up a measuring session together with Batenburg Installatietechniek and Batenburg Applied Technologies to measure disruptions to the L-type.

About Ampelmann

Ampelmann is the largest player in the offshore and wind industry in the field of transferring people and goods at sea from ship to platform by means of a motion-compensated gangway and a crane system. The motion compensation platform allows easy, fast and safe access from a moving vessel to offshore structures, even in high wave conditions.
