  • Each product must be labelled with construction, section, position and (where appropriate) lot number, for example: 1401-210-200.

      Note that places requiring these processes must be specified in detail on the picture itself with text and marker lines.
  • Please use 'string tags' in the drawing.
    These string tags contain the parameters for the product, help our system to read the file in quickly and helps to prevent errors.
    String tags in the drawing incorporate parameters such as:
    • [Q] 2         (Q = quantity)
    • [M] Gr-A   (M = Material)
    • [T] 20        (T = Thickness)

  • Do not use: polylines, splines and regions.
  • Do not use blocks in a drawing.

Special instructions for shipbuilding:

  • Where parts need special working, please supply the relevant product information (i.e. moulds/stretching frames).
  • In case a position requires a kink/setting, the marked size on the product should indicate the outer size.
