Aluminum alloy ships have been used in industry for a long time and have achieved excellent results. Aluminum alloy high-speed boats have become the main means of transportation for inland rivers, offshore navigation, work patrols, and recreational fishing. Aluminum alloy is favored by people because of its light weight, easy forming and corrosion resistance. After more than one hundred years of research and development, aluminum alloy has been widely used in ships and has become a promising material in the shipbuilding industry.
1. Recyclable: Aluminum alloy can be recycled as a metal material. 2. Durable and long life: The ship inspection stipulates that the effective life of the aluminum alloy boat is 30 years3. Impact resistance: The impact resistance of aluminum alloy boats is stronger than that of FRP boats. As the service life of ships increases, this will become more and more obvious. Aluminum alloy has great advantages in impact resistance and corrosion resistance. 4. Quick repairability: the aluminum alloy hull can quickly recover after collision. If the hull does not leak after the impact, only a simple welding repair is needed to level the outer plate. If the hull shell collides and leaks, only need to re-cut and weld according to the size of the leak. The quality of the repaired hull is the same as that of the new hull, and the advantages of quick repair of the aluminum alloy hull are particularly obvious. 5. Light weight and fast speed: The weight of aluminum alloy hull is much lighter than that of glass fiber reinforced plastic hull and steel hull, but the strength is very good and will not affect the net load of the hull, thus greatly improving the speed and fuel economy of the ship.
