Valmet Automation Gets Order For Eight Damatic Systems From Yugoslavia Valmet Automation a.s. in Nor- way recently received an order for eight Damatic marine automation systems to be delivered to the Yu- goslav shipyards Split and Uljanic. These systems include monitoring as well as control functions of the propulsion machinery and electrical power station, and are based on the same technical concept as the sev- eral ships now in service with re- duced crew complements. During the past few months, Val- met Automation has received orders for 17 ships—the eight for Yugoslav yards, seven for South Korea, one for Finland, and one for Norway. Last year Valmet established a co- operation agreement with Hyundai Electrical Engineering Company (HEECO) in South Korea, a compa- ny manufacturing electrical rotating machinery, switchgear, and elec- tronics. As a result of the contracts in Yugoslavia, a similar agreement has been signed with the Yugoslav company Rade Koncar. Valmet came on the market in 1983 with a new concept for ship automation, replacing the six to eight traditionally separate systems with one multi-functional system, the Damatic Marine System, com- bining monitoring and control of the ship's propulsion and cargo gear into a microprocessor-based hard- ware concept with color video dis- play units in the control room.

In fact, over half the exhibits overlap the workboat market and in a 800 booth show, that'll keep you busy for a while. Whether you're looking for a good shipyard, deck gear manufacturer or the best supplier for handling equip- ment, you'll find them at Fish Expo. And Fish Expo probably has more marine electronics exhibits than any other commercial marine show. The fact is that workboat buyers have been attending Fish Expo for years (all twenty of them). But they don't like to talk about it. You see, they think it gives them a competitive edge and this year, we're sharing the secret.
