Shipbuilding Software FORAN will be one of SENER’s main projects at DSEI 2013

The engineering and technology group SENER will present at DSEI 3013 new developments and projects in the naval sector and the defense sector.

In the naval sector, SENER will show its new developments in the FORAN system, the CAD/CAM software for the construction of ship and offshore devices that is licensed in more than 150 shipyards and technical design offices and is one of the most-used software systems in this sector. It covers all the design disciplines in a single integrated solution and offers a modular structure.

The series of frigates F-310 built at Navantia for the Norwegian navy, the landing helicopter dock (LHD) for the Spanish navy, also built by the said Spanish group, and the border guard ship P-22460 for Russia, designed by Severnoye Design Bureau, have been designed and built using FORAN. The same applies to the Queen Elizabeth Class aircraft carrier for the Royal Navy, which is being built at the British shipyards BAE Submarines, BAE Surface Ships and Babcok Marine.

In Defense, SENER will present engineering and production projects of actuation and control systems (ACS) for missile applications, such as the programs TAURUS KEPD 350, IRIS-T AA & IRIS-T SL, RBS 70 NG, METEOR and NSM. It will also show intelligence, surveillance and recognition (ISR) applications, where, for example, SENER is a responsible supplier of the optical instrument of the SEOSAT/INGENIO satellite, the Spanish earth observation satellite.
