The Starting Point for Smart Shipyard Implementation
SP-HRMM
High-Resolution Character & 2D Matrix Code Marking System for Shipyard Pretreatment Lines
Design drawing data is marked directly on steel surfaces in real time, connecting pretreatment identification, tracking, and quality control into a single data flow. This is the starting point for field datafication in shipyard DX/AX implementation.
A manual process where operators read drawing data and transcribe marks or characters onto steel plates by hand. This leads to frequent transcription errors and productivity bottlenecks.
01Check Drawings & Job Orders
Workers cross-check blueprints with production orders to manually confirm marking locations and target information.
02Verify Steel Location
Re-verify steel plate numbers and orientations in the yard or pretreatment line, and manually set reference points.
03Manual Transcribing
Characters, symbols, and guidelines are written by hand, making quality highly dependent on worker skill and field conditions.
04Re-check & Correction
Missing or incorrect entries must be checked, causing rework and schedule delays.
ConvertFrom manual transcription to data-driven automatic marking
With CSCAM
Smart Marking Connected via Data
Design drawing data received from the engineering department is automatically converted into marking data, linking real-time marking status monitoring through to post-marking result verification — the starting point of a “Smart Shipyard.”

Smart Data Workflow
CSCAM CAD & IMD Marking Data Flow
Marking data extracted from CAD designs is converted by the IMD server, with real-time measurement data reflected to maintain optimal marking conditions at all times.
01CAD Server
Generates and manages parts and marking data from original design drawings.
02IMD Server
Handles string conversion, duplication avoidance, and calculation of symmetrical parts.
03Data PC
Manages sequence of field operations and real-time marking progress data.
04Control PC
Converts marking details and width detection data into device control values.
05Marking
Executes automatic marking on the steel surface according to the transmitted data.
Core MessageThe implementation of the marking system digitalizes the steel pretreatment process and serves as the starting point for transitioning into a smart shipyard.
Core Technology
Why Piezo Inkjet Control Marking Machine?
The Piezo Inkjet Control head engine applied by CSCAM delivers overwhelming resolution and eco-friendliness compared to the outdated DOD valve open method.
Simple and convenient (minimal maintenance infrastructure)
Very complex and requires regular cleaning time
Min Printed Character Size
Legible even under 20mm x 20mm
Only print above 32mm (Micro marking impossible)
Symbol & Glyph Printing
Free Printing of High-Definition Logos, Symbols & Glyphs
Limited to simple dot-type text
Ultra-Precision High-Contrast Marking
0.282 mm dot size delivers clear QR codes, 2D Matrix codes, AR-codes, and characters under 20 mm without readability defects.
Work Environment Improvement
Oil/UV ink is used instead of highly volatile MEK solvent, reducing harmful gas generation and improving yard operating conditions.
Breakthrough Consumable Cost Reduction
No solvent spraying is required to clean the heads, significantly reducing routine consumable costs and offering excellent continuous printing stability under 24-hour operation.
Stationary System
High-Resolution Stationary Marking System
Permanently fixed on top of the ship pretreatment steel conveyor line to precisely mark the entire plate or central ID of passing plates.
