Being in contact with shipyards, ports and naval bases worldwide for decades, BRÖHL has developed a wide range of maritime installations for drydocking and transferring ships and sections of manifold types.

BRÖHL performs supplies and services in all stages of the realization of maritime installation:

Consulting
Engineering
Manufacturing
Assembly
Commissioning
After-sales-service

In the field of drydocking BRÖHL has gathered experience in around 80 national and international projects, covering:

Shiplifts
-Vertical ship elevators as the most advanced technology of drydocking ships.

Electrically driven hoists lift and lower a platform as docking basis for ships. Executed as pier and pit buildings with end- or side transfer all standard solutions are available as well as tailor-made design, comprising frequency-converter control, steel decking of platform, contaminated surface water disposal and sand and sludge flushing systems, supplemented by effective positioning systems to complete the facility.

Slipways
-The traditional way of drydocking ships.

Railbound carriages will be pulled by one or several winches over a slope of longitudinal or transversely built slipways.

Dual-level Transfersystems
-The robust transfersystem for easy handling.

Railbound cradles transfer the ship off the platform to a pit-operated side transfer carriage, reaching parking- and repair berthes on yard level.
Increase of safety during docking manoeuvres can be reached by additional hydraulically operated bilge arms.

Single-level Transfersystems
-The sophisticated technology for transferring ships.

Transfer operations will be carried out in a single level yard, either by railbound bogies or rubber- wheeled multi-axle transporters.
The railbound bogies are equipped with an integrated hydraulic to lift pallets carrying ships; change of direction will be executed on fixed rail crossings by 90°.
Multi-axle transporters -also with integrated lifting hydraulic- feature high flexibility and manoeuvre-capability as an alternative for railbound systems.
Both transfersystems can be designed as self-propelled systems.

Mover units
- External units for movement of non self acting transfersystems.

Movements of transfersystems can also be carried out by separate mover units, as:
~ mobile winches built upon rubber-wheeled or rail- bound carriage
~ stationary winches, especially for movement of side tranfser carriages
~ hydromechanical linear mover equipment ("Gripping Jacks"), gripping on rails and pulling or pushing transfersystems by heavy duty cylinders

Drydock Equipment
-Equipment for floating-and graving docks.

Hauling winches or capstans with suitable rope guiding systems serve for positioning of floated-in ships.
Electrically resp. hydraulically operated bilge blocks are provided for stabilizing docking manoevres.
