Until Climax came on- board, it took 240 hours for a shipyard to re-machine just one submarine missile tube. That’s nearly 3 man- years for a sub’s usual array of 24 tubes.
In response, Climax came up with an innovative custom boring tool based on its patented technologies. Setup and monitoring are radically easier, and Climax provided on-site training. Now each tube takes a single shift five days, start to finish.
When it comes to improving their maintenance and repair, shipyards rely on Climax. The solution may range from a clever new mount for a standard Climax tool to an all-new custom machine. It may involve on-the-job consultation or a major training program like one we recently held for ten of China’s largest shipyards. Today Climax is uniquely equipped to support you everywhere that machining and machine tools affect your bottom line.
