Kockums Loadmaster Computer is the only cargo distribution instru- ment that can give you continuous display of all this information.

That's why the Loadmaster has been chosen by almost every major oil company and shipowner around the world.

This electronic device correctly and easily pre-calculates cargo distribution in tankers, bulk carriers, container ships and Lash ships in order to avoid dangerous stresses on the hull. ____-======f\

It's easy to operate. You simply turn the potentiometers until a digital counter reads the estimated weight of load in the tanks; this feeds the Loadmaster with all the information it needs. It'll take you 5 minutes to learn how to handle it. And the Loadmaster is designed to be used: you don't have to worry about damaging the mecha- nism by pushing the wrong button.

When it comes to performance, the

Loadmaster is practically fool- proof; all components are subjected to exacting operational tests and every unit has to pass a simula- tion test run before it's assembled.

And, an easy-to-read test program for use at sea is provided with every unit.

The Loadmaster's basic price - with 7 read-out points-is approxima- tely 39,700 Swedish crowns, FOB

Swedish port. Since every Load- master is individually built, the price will vary according to the required number of read-out points, etc.

We've also designed a new device, called the Stability Set, for calcu- lation of transverse stability. It works through the Loadmaster and enables fast, easy calculation of your vessel's stability.

We'll be happy to tell you more about the Kockums Loadmaster

Computer and the Stability Set.
