HMM conducts a pilot demonstration of an onboard 3D printing system on its 9,000 TEU containership \u2018HMM GREEN\u2019.<\/p>\n

Through this initiative, HMM aims to assess the seamless operation of the system in actual sailing conditions and evaluate its feasibility for procuring maintenance parts on vessels.<\/p>\n

The installed \u20183D Printing Digital Workshop\u2019 uses metal powder to produce stainless steel components, ensuring sufficient durability.<\/p>\n

The system has the potential to reduce the lead times for components by enabling ships to rapidly produce essential parts on demand if it is adopted.<\/p>\n

This would allow for timely production of necessary parts, minimizing inventory costs while preventing additional expenses and downtime during vessel maintenance.<\/p>\n

As part of its technology development efforts, HMM signed an MoU in September 2023 with several relevant organizations including HD Hyundai Heavy Industries, HD Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Energy, Korean Register(KR), and the American Bureau of Shipping(ABS).<\/p>\n

An HMM official stated, \u201cWe are committed to strengthening our competitiveness through the adoption of cutting-edge technologies and active participation in research and development of maritime sector.\u201d<\/p>\n
