LOADMAX provides a fast, easy method of planning optimum loading for any type of ship. It rapidly calculates and displays accurate draft, hull strength and stability data for any loading condition. Raytheon reports this instrument is as simple to use as a desk calculator. Tonnage distribution and calculated results can be read at a glance. Elements which could possibly cause con- fusion such as knobs, thumb- wheels and cluttered CRT dis- plays have been eliminated. Designed for the particular op- erating requirements of a specific ship, LOADMAX combines nu- meric tonnage displays with an easily understood mimic diagram of the vessel. A separate graphic display shows whether the ship is in hogging or sagging condi- tion and if sheer force or bend- ing moment limits are being ex- ceeded. An extremely reliable system with a proven record, LOADMAX provides a vessel owner with the means for fast, efficient vessel loading with maximum safety.
