SDARI has expanded their use of Nupas-Cadmatic by purchasing a further 31 hull licenses and a further 34 piping, outfitting and machinery licenses, bringing the total amount of Nupas-Cadmatic licenses to 84.
According Mr. Wan Shui Sheng, Deputy Director at SDARI, the company had long been searching for an appropriate new 3D ship design platform, which could involve all the ship design stages from the beginning to the end, i.e. from conceptual development to production design. SDARI found the
solution in the combined use of two major and leading products, Nupas-Cadmatic and NAPA.
“NAPA software is one of the most popular and important development tools at the conceptual design stage in SDARI. As such we were very interested in the natural compatibility and relationship
between Nupas-Cadmatic and NAPA. After a six month period of testing we were convinced of the
synergy and close connection between the two software packages. Of great importance as well was Nu-pas-Cadmatic’s user-friendly graphical user interface, powerful functions and good flexibility etc. We have also been impressed by Nupas-Cadmatic’s kind and strong support. SDARI believes that the cooperation with Nupas-Cadmatic will continue to be a great success in the future.”
The Chinese shipbuilding industry has grown rapidly in recent times and with it SDARI has gained a good reputation in world shipping and shipbuilding.
