Applications in steel construction
The frame notching tool is designed for producing frames for shipbuilding and notches out the recesses needed for the passage of longitudinal members. It cuts the notches where frames pass over stringers, longitudinal frames, and keelsons. This creates the positive-fit connection of the transverse to the longitudinal structure of the hull.
Typical applications
- Notching frames for the passage of stringers and longitudinal frames
- Recesses on transverse frames for connection to the longitudinal members
- Preparation of frame sections for steel shipbuilding
- Recurring notches on series of identical frames
- Preparing the frames for fitting into the longitudinal framework of the hull
Which businesses use it
Used in shipbuilding and steel shipbuilding, as well as in shipyards and supplier companies that produce frames and hull structures.
Frequently asked questions
Why are frames notched?
Frames form the transverse structure of the ship's hull and must be notched for the continuous longitudinal members such as stringers and longitudinal frames. The notches let the longitudinal parts pass through and create the positive-fit connection between the transverse and longitudinal framework.
Why a dedicated tool for frames instead of free machining?
A tool matched to frames delivers reproducible notches on a large number of identical components. This is important in series shipbuilding so that the frames can be fitted precisely over the longitudinal members.
