Marine airbag launching slipway

What’s Marine airbag launching slipway

Generally slipway designed for airbag launching can be described as two parts: above water part and under water part. The vessel will be built on the above water part which has the small incline angle. And the under water part has bigger angle which can give launched vessel more slide forward force and make airbags can roll out of buttom of vessel. The distance,angle and structure of under water part are very important for the success of launching and also the safty of airbags.
If possible concrete slipway is the best. For temporary vessel launching, strong enough ground is acceptable.
The design of slipway need scientific calculation and computer simulation test. And good design slipway can suit most vessel’s’ launching.
