Autoship Systems Corporation to Release Automated Tool for Generating Autoload Databases
Autoship Systems Corporations’ continuing development is leading to a major release this month which will come with a feature that allows ship designers to automatically export their 3D model and stability database into Autoload regardless of the 3D design package being used.

This feature has been high on the wish-list of designers as it allows them to export their early stage designs into Autoload databases where they can show simulations to their own potential end-clients and then make any necessary changes as part of the design evolution.

This major release means that ship designers can quickly and easily create Autoload setups for use as graphical simulations without waiting until the end stage of their projects.

Additionally, in the offshore oil and gas sectors the requirement for ship owners to be able to tender for complex projects in the initial stages, often even before a vessel has been delivered from the shipyard, has led to the realization by clients that Autoload, in addition to being purchased and used for its intended purpose as a loading instrument, can now be used to show the vessel operator’s end clients how a vessel will perform and also to produce upfront the necessary loading, stability and crane handling documentation that is required as part of these complex tender processes.

Autoload virtually brings a vessel to life during the design period.

Our development team have chosen IGES as the backbone format for this process as it is a well used format already proven in the ship design world.
