Magnetic Analysis
This analysis evaluates the magnetic properties of materials used in our davit systems to ensure they meet stringent requirements for stealth and safety. In naval operations, especially for mine countermeasure (MCM) vessels, minimizing magnetic signatures is essential to prevent triggering magnetic mines. By carefully analysing the magnetic impact of our davit designs, we can select and integrate low-magnetic or non-magnetic materials, reducing the risk of detection or accidental activation of explosive threats.This magnetic assessment plays a crucial role in enhancing the overall operational effectiveness of military vessels engaged in high-risk environments. Through precise material selection and design refinements, Vestdavit ensures that our davits align with the strict standards required for maritime and other defence applications. Our expertise in this field allows us to support successfully some naval forces with their launch and recovery solutions that contribute to mission success while maintaining the highest levels of safety and stealth in sensitive maritime operations.
