COMEC(SH:600685) Nan Fang Du Shi Bao·2025-08-07 00:34Core Viewpoint - The construction of the second domestically produced large cruise ship "Aida Huacheng" has made significant progress, marking a key milestone in the shipbuilding process with the successful operation of its main generator set, indicating the transition to the equipment debugging and system functionality verification phase [1][2]. Group 1: Construction Progress - The "Aida Huacheng" achieved the operation of its first main generator four months ahead of the first large cruise ship "Aida Modu" [1]. - The main generator is a critical component, serving as the primary power source for the ship's distribution and propulsion systems [1]. - The ship is equipped with five high-power generators, with the first one being a V-type 14-cylinder high-pressure common rail engine, capable of producing 16.8 megawatts, equivalent to the main engine power of a 100,000-ton cargo ship [1][2]. Group 2: System Integration and Testing - The successful operation of the main generator signifies the completion of 18 related fluid systems and over 300 auxiliary devices, with mechanical installations nearing completion [2]. - The shipbuilding company has implemented lean management principles and optimized processes based on experiences from the first ship, ensuring efficient operation of the low-voltage power system and advancing the debugging of medium-voltage distribution boards [2]. - The overall progress of the project has exceeded 80%, with the next focus on interior construction and equipment system debugging to ensure the ship's launch in March 2026 and delivery by the end of 2026 [2].
