More righting moment with less drag is created for sailing, reducing heel and increasing speed and comfort.<\/p>\n<p>The chosen system was a \u201cDynamic Stability System\u201d featuring a 9m long foil spanning transversely across the midships (right beneath the owners cabin!) , producing 70T of lift, allowing a lower displacement hull shape to be used.<\/p>\n<p>Several good partners were already involved in this great feat of engineering, but there was a piece of the puzzle missing. The foil must be actuated, retracting and extending from side to side while under very high loads. A problem well suited to the specialist experience and detailed mechanical design skills found in our team.<\/p>\n<p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-312428 kc_col-sm-6 kc_column_inner kc_col-sm-6\"><div class=\"kc_wrapper kc-col-inner-container\">\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n.item:first-child .item__img-wrap {\n\t--image: url(\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/about-bar-technologies.jpg);\n}\n\n.item .item__img-wrap .image_item_663b0d1d96746 {\n\t--image: url(https:\/\/www.bartechnologies.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/SailingSuperyachtFoilSystem.jpg);\n}\n<\/style>\n\n<div class=\"content \">\n\t<div class=\"item\">\n\t\t<div class=\"item__img-wrap\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"item__img item__img--t1 image_item_663b0d1d96746\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section data-kc-fullwidth=\"row\" class=\"kc-elm kc-css-73622 kc_row\"><div class=\"kc-row-container  kc-container\"><div class=\"kc-wrap-columns\"><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-391122 kc_col-sm-12 kc_column kc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"kc-col-container\"><div data-kc-equalheight=\"true\" data-kc-row-action=\"true\" data-kc-equalheight-align=\"top\" class=\"kc-elm kc-css-62050 kc_row kc_row_inner align-middle\"><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-417418 kc_col-sm-9 kc_column_inner kc_col-sm-9\"><div class=\"kc_wrapper kc-col-inner-container\"><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-859795 kc_text_block white-text fadein\"><\/p>\n<h2>The Solution<\/h2>\n<p>\n<\/div><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-863209 kc_text_block white-text fadein\"><\/p>\n<p>\nDrawing on the extensive experience of foil actuation design from our America\u2019s Cup heritage, BARTech provided a turnkey solution for the actuation. From conceptual design, detailed manufacturing drawings, to procurement and assembly of the system.<\/p>\n<p>The foils operate in a free flooding cassette through the hull. A system of pulleys and lines was developed with routing to ensure watertight integrity of the hull is maintained, while running through to the captive winch. All whilst providing access for inspection and maintenance.<\/p>\n<p>The actuation of the foil under high loads makes friction and also distortion of the carbon trailing edge of the foil a significant challenge. With experience in this area and years of microscopic material research, we were able to accurately calculate the impacts and mitigate performance loss with design and material selection. This resulted in the design of self aligning bearing cassettes containing Ultra high molecular polyethylene pads, capable of reactions loads of up to 200T.<\/p>\n<p>The result was a system which integrated seamlessly with the yacht systems and structure, a \u201cplug and play\u201d solution delivered.<\/p>\n<p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-674728 kc_col-sm-3 kc_column_inner kc_col-sm-3\"><div class=\"kc_wrapper kc-col-inner-container\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section data-kc-fullwidth=\"row\" class=\"kc-elm kc-css-9383 kc_row\"><div class=\"kc-row-container  kc-container\"><div class=\"kc-wrap-columns\"><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-290298 kc_col-sm-12 kc_column kc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"kc-col-container\"><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-323931 kc_row kc_row_inner\"><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-748759 kc_col-sm-6 kc_column_inner kc_col-sm-6\"><div class=\"kc_wrapper kc-col-inner-container\"><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-15096 kc-animated kc-animate-eff-fadeIn kc_shortcode kc_single_image\">\n\n        <img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.bartechnologies.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Baltic-142-sailing-yacht-under-construction-aerial-view.jpg\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1200px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1200\/750;\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bartechnologies.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Baltic-142-sailing-yacht-under-construction-aerial-view.jpg\" class=\"\" alt=\"\" \/><\/noscript>    <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-948599 kc_col-sm-6 kc_column_inner kc_col-sm-6\"><div class=\"kc_wrapper kc-col-inner-container\"><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-239510 mobile-show\" style=\"height: 30px; clear: both; width:100%;\"><\/div><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-109356 kc-animated kc-animate-eff-fadeIn kc_shortcode kc_single_image\">\n\n        <img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.bartechnologies.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Baltic-142-Dynamic-Stability-System-cross-section.jpg\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 2000px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 2000\/1250;\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bartechnologies.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Baltic-142-Dynamic-Stability-System-cross-section.jpg\" class=\"\" alt=\"\" \/><\/noscript>    <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"featured_media":999,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"sector":[8],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.6 -
