A large component with critical geometry for generating energy from ocean currents required a workpiece strategy, reliable datums and controlled dimensions.
Machining a large workpiece
The large workpiece formed part of an ocean-energy scale prototype and required preparation based on its size, geometry and function.
Our approach
Douna applied CNC large-part machining and practical engineering knowledge. Production planning, workholding and the machining sequence were matched to the component.
Inspection and handover
The historical source identifies workholding, dimensions and process control as key factors in this machining operation.
