Ned-Deck Marine Vietnam; The Story
This article about the story from Ned-Deck Marine Vietnam highlights the story from NDM in the international maritime arena. Arnout IJzermans, Managing Director NDM Vietnam, explains the business and how NDM successfully set foot outside the Netherlands.
         
The NED-DECK MARINE manual slewing davits have been designed for long time operation under adverse and extreme conditions in a highly corrosive marine environment.
The manual slewing davits of the SCM-L series are so-called “plug-in and play units” all guaranteeing easy installation on board.

The SCM-L davit is a freestanding deck mounted davit consisting of a davit arm, column and winch.
The system is suitable for safe and efficient launching of a fully manned life-raft against unfavourable conditions of trim of up to 10 degrees and a list of up to 20 degrees either way.

Slewing out the davit arm is realised manually by means of a crank handle. As soon as the correct outboard position has been achieved, the life-raft can be inflated (for correct procedure see instructions of life-raft manufacturer!).

After embarking, the life-raft can be lowered to the water level. The lowering procedure can be controlled in two ways, either by means of a remote control wire from within the life-raft or by lifting the brake handle of the winch directly. Lowering is realised by means of gravity.

Recovery of the empty hook is realised manually by using the crank handle of the winch. Dependant on the lowering height and the number of life-rafts, the winch can be equipped with a so-called “quick-return unit” for easy and fast retrieval of the empty hook.

Since the safe working load and outreach of the davit are normally determined by the size of the life-raft, NED-DECK MARINE have chosen for a limited range of standard designs which can be adapted to some extent in order to meet individual and specific needs.

The SCM-L series meets the latest IMO/SOLAS requirements and LSA Code as well as the European Council Directive 96/98 EC on Marine Equipment (M.E.D.).
