Bayards Marine Structures

Bayards Marine Structures and Bayards Helidecks & Helipads are exhibiting at Europort Istanbul this week. Meet Hendrik Kaijim at the NEMOMARIN pavilion, booth 2.130 #workboats #aluminium #helidecks #engineering #craftsmanship

Bayards is pleased to announce that Awais Sheikh has joined our team for an internship focused on sustainability. During his internship, Awais will be mapping our carbon footprint throughout the entire build process of a marine vessel's high-tech aluminium superstructure. The data Awais collects will contribute to the Life Cycle Assessment, reinforcing Bayards' commitment to the goals of the Water Revolution Foundation. We are excited to quantify our environmentally responsible work processes and further cement aluminium's status as a highly sustainable building material, known for its recyclability, weight savings, and fuel efficiency. #aluminium #hightech #engineering #LCA #sustainability #CTV #CSOV #BayardsTeam #WindEnergy

Bayards Marine Structures is attending #SMM! Reach out to Huib Slings or Chris Dowland via LinkedIn or WhatsApp to schedule an appointment and discuss how we can streamline your building process. Our Friction Stir Welding and proprietary aluminum extrusions deliver lighter vessels, faster production, with fewer man-hours needed, plus significant time savings during the finishing stages

Be sure to contact Chris Dowland if you are at #GlobalOffshoreWind today! Chris will be happy to discuss how combining our state-of-the-art Friction Stir Welding process with our extensive extrusion library will streamline your build process and create lighter CTVs and CSOVs. He can take you through the calculations, showing you how much extra running time you'll add by creating a lighter vessel and how much fuel you could save yearly. Connect with Chris Dowland via LinkedIn or message him at +44 7812 712126 to set up a meeting! See you in Manchester! #aluminium #FSW #CTV #CSOV #Engineering #craftsmanship #BayardsTeam #GOW

On the back of a great week at #SeaWork24, we're moving straight on to #GOW24! Our Business & Product Development Manager, Chris Dowland, will be present both days. Chris will be happy to discuss how combining our proven Friction Stir Welding process with our extensive extrusion library will result in faster production of lighter CTVs and CSOVs. He can take you through the calculations, showing you how much more running time you'll add by creating a lighter vessel and how much fuel you could save every year. Connect with Chris Dowland via LinkedIn or message him at +44 7812 712126 to set up a meeting! See you in Manchester! #aluminium #FSW #CTV #CSOV #Engineering #craftsmanship #BayardsTeam

Bayards Marine Structures is excited to exhibit at SeaWork 24! If you are looking for an experienced aluminium shipbuilding partner, visit us at the NL Pavilion in booth E15. We can't wait to tell you all about our state-of-the-art aluminium dedicated machine park, which enables us to deliver Dutch-built quality consistently: always on time and within budget. Bayards has been at the forefront of aluminium shipbuilding since 1963, serving as your preferred co-engineering partner for aluminium workboats, crew transfer vessels, ferries, superstructures, and complete cascos. Are you curious how our Friction Stir Welding process provides minimal distortion and greater dimensional accuracy, saving you time and man-hours during outfitting? Visit our booth or set up an appointment with Huib Slings today! #SeaWork #aluminium #shipbuilding #CTV #Ferry #craftsmanship #engineering #BayardsTeam

This is a great day to relax and enjoy this in-depth documentary on the innovations in machinery and bonding techniques that allow Bayards Marine Structures to deliver consistent Dutch Built Quality. Watch as Huib Slings and Chris Dowland guide the crew from the Royal Institution of Naval Architects through our facilities. Let Roy Overdam, Jose Rego Alonso, and Carsten Heijman demonstrate how our high-tech milling equipment integrates with our innovative Friction Stir Welding machine, enabling us to advance our research in state-of-the-art aluminium structural bonding. #aluminium #craftsmanship #innovation #engineering #superyachts #bonding #fsw

This is amongst the most fascinating yet under-utilised innovations! Our partner Bayards Yacht Structures is among the few companies in Europe to boast a Friction Stir Welding machine. This innovative machine fuses two pieces of aluminium at the joint by mechanically intermixing them, using pressure instead of melting. Traditional welding often leads to material deformation due to extreme heat. However, the friction stir welding process preserves the original characteristics of the metal, ensuring minimal distortion. ✨ Key benefits: ▶️ High-strength joints devoid of impurities or inclusions ▶️ Less long-term fatigue and strength losses enable lighter structures ▶️ Greatly reduced stress in the joint resulting in minimal distortion and flawless surface ▶️ Straighter plating enables reduced fairing weight and post-processing man-hours Bayards' structures are optimally assembled, with an average of 30% of the ship structure manufactured from Friction Stir Welded Panels and with each weld taking as little as 20 mins for an 18 x 3.4m sheet. For a structure that is lighter, stronger and more manufacturing efficient, get in touch: Chris Dowland - our Business Development and Technical Director. #MarineEngineering #StructuralWelding #MarineInnovation #BayardsTeam

Continuous innovation enables Bayards Marine Structures to create high-quality Dutch Built Quality crew transfer vessels, workboats, and ferries for competitive budgets. Adding the Fooke Endura 715 to our lineup of Gantry, Portatec, and Friction Stir Welding machines enables us to meet even the most challenging demands in the production and engineering of sturdy and lightweight marine structures.
