We are looking back at an excellent SMM last week!
It was so busy, we realize now that we didn't take enough photos. At least this important photo with TX Marine Messsysteme GmbH's team, Nadine Paschen and Alexandra Leuschner shows you our energetic German agents. We will have some installations in German shipyards soon. If you want to have a presentation at your offices, October would be a good option. ๐๐๐ฉ ๐๐ฃ ๐ฉ๐ค๐ช๐๐! #ultrasonicantifouling #TXmarine #Shipsonic #USAF #Germany

Shipsonic's Chiel de Wit will be part of @Netherlands pavillion programme and share how conclusive research on ultrasonic anti-fouling took years and findings included some big surprises. Maritime & Offshore NL has organized a great set of speakers for afternoon of the first SMM day: Together with nC Protect and AlbatrosDigital we will get onto the stage to present the insights from Wageningen University and Stichting Zeeschelp research. We will show you how designing a test

Shipsonic recognized for reliable and sustainable anti-fouling
It is a great honour for Shipsonic to have been chosen as the most reliable, environmentally friendly and robust anti-fouling for box-coolers. We appreciate the selection process by Van Wijngaarden Marine Services B.V., Kooiman Marine Group and NRF (Nederlandse Radiateuren Fabriek) and we are proud to be part of the Rijnstroom project.

The Framfjord is a vessel of just 67 meters long. See photo 1 for aft of MV Framfjord in dock in Stettin. The Framfjord was designed for rapid emergency goods delivery all over the world. The Red Cross ordered the vessel to be built in 2006, in Croatia. It was small enough to offload in all types of ports and offloading locations, such as river mouths/estuaries. It has complete independent loading and offloading equipment on board. It was at the same time equipped to be as in

This wonderful building full of curved shapes, suits our Travel Transducer very well. Shipsonic may not design iconic buildings, we definitely designed something that works very well on round surfaces. If you want to protect your water intake pipe, we only need you to send us the outer diameter (or the outer circumference) of the pipe and we will custom-make the installation rings and the transducer, to exactly fit seemlessly on your curvy parts. It can be on your bow (stern)


Test bench for all types of antifouling
Together with Kelvion, Shipsonic has developed test equipment that can measure the actual capacity of a cooler. It measures not only the inlet and outlet temperature of the coolant, but also the speed at which the fluid flows through the coolers.
