Airblast and Shandong KaiTai ride the wind and waves to build a new era of deep-sea protection

Recently, the Shanghai International Maritime Expo opened as scheduled. Shandong Kaitai and overseas company Airblast jointly made a stunning appearance, showcasing the deep integration of two eras and two technological genes: European craftsmanship spanning 50 years and China's intelligent manufacturing, to jointly shape a new future for marine engineering protection and escort the global marine industry.

When Shandong KaiTai incorporated Airblast into its portfolio, a profound technological integration quietly began. Unlike a simple technology introduction, KaiTai embarked on a solid path of "introduction-digestion-absorption-innovation". This is not a mere technology transfer, but a deep innovation and reinvention based on the actual needs of China's offshore engineering industry.

At the R&D center in Kaitai, Shandong, the Sino European engineering team is facing special challenges in the Chinese waters: high temperature and high salinity in the South China Sea, high-frequency typhoons in the East China Sea, and the impact of ice age in the Bohai Bay. The technological solutions in Europe need to be localized and transformed here.

Kaitai has carried out multiple independent innovations and developed a series of products that are more suitable for the use conditions in Chinese waters, taking into account the unique characteristics of China's marine environment and domestic manufacturing processes. After retaining the core sandblasting process principle of Airblast, Kaitai restructured the control system. After adding the IoT module, the parameters can be adjusted in real time to adapt to environmental changes. The modified sandblasting system can automatically plan the sandblasting path, improve processing efficiency, and ensure complete coating coverage.

Fifty years of European focus, coupled with the acceleration of Chinese innovation, is providing new technological confidence for conquering the deep sea. In the journey of deep blue sailing through the wind and waves, every inch of carefully crafted surface is a solid guarantee for safely reaching a distant place. Assist China and the world in sailing towards deeper and farther blue territories.
