Our suite of marine engineering software offers a truly integrated approach for every step of the CAD/CAM process from generating hull lines through to nesting of parts. Many other vendors offer a solution to one part of the CAD/CAM design process and so users choosing that path end up with a variety of software and as a result experience a ‘disjointed’ design process.
When you begin the process with Autoship, the model that is created is used throughout the entire CAD/CAM process. And when you make changes to the Autoship model, all the other programs can easily adapt to the revision.
The Autoship System was developed by naval architects for naval architects and continues to offer the very best integrated approach from start to finish. If your company realizes the benefits of a seamless engineering process then they will realize Autoship Systems Corporation has the preferred solution.
AutoHydro is our complete naval architectural calculation program, which allows the user to define any vessel type or floating structure, using the companion program ModelMaker (supplied with AutoHydro) and then to perform naval architectural calculations on the model, such as hydrostatics, cross curves of stability, tank capacities, intact stability, damage stability using deterministic or probabilistic methods.
The Autoship hull design/surface modelling program combines the graphical user interface of Windows with the dexterity of NURBS (Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline) mathematics, the high-end CAD standard for surface modelling, to give you the tools to quickly and efficiently create any hull shape from a racing yacht to a super tanker, including the superstructure and appendages.
AutoStructure Suite is our production suite which includes the AutoStructure program for modelling the vessel structure, and thereafter outputting CAD drawings, nesting details and other production support through Production manager. AutoStructure can interface with third party software to include piping and electrical interfacing.
AutoPower is our powering and resistance prediction program, Autopower‘s advanced user interface enables optimization of hull parameters based upon 12 independent resistance and propulsion methods for displacement, semi-displacement, planing hulls and catamarans.
AutoPlate performs plate expansion calculations for both developable and non-developable plates. Autoplate helps in the layout and forming of the shell plating. It is based on a modern proprietary expansion algorithm.
AutoShip Systems offers both Subscription and Perpetual Licensing models to suit the needs of shipyards, naval architects, marine consultants, engineering contractors and vessel operators.
Whether you require a single or multi-user license, we can provide a licensing solution tailored to your operational requirements.
Licences are available with either software-based or hardware-based protection. Software licences can be configured to a standalone workstation or centrally managed through a network server, providing flexibility for organisations of all sizes. Hardware-locked licences are also available for customers who require a dedicated physical licensing solution.
Our Annual Maintenance & Support Plan (MSP) helps you maximise the value of your CADCAM software investment through ongoing software enhancements and dedicated technical support.
MSP Benefits:
We offer comprehensive training programmes across the AutoShip Systems CADCAM software suite, tailored to the experience level and operational requirements of your team. From introductory courses for new users through to advanced, application-specific training for experienced naval architects and marine engineers, our training solutions are designed to improve user confidence, maximise productivity, and help organisations realise the full potential of their software investment.
