SSAS-Master

SSAS-Master is a next-generation integrated control solution developed on over 30 years of expertise in ship automation, delivering high reliability and proven performance in terms of efficiency, safety, and ease of maintenance.

Equipped with high-performance processing capabilities and a universal I/O architecture, SSAS-Master precisely and reliably controls key vessel systems including generators, pumps, cargo handling equipment, and navigation equipment. With redundancy across every layer — from top-level workstations down to the lowest I/O cards — uninterrupted control and continuous monitoring remain available even in the event of a single fault.

Designed for modern ships, SSAS-Master enhances operational efficiency through an intuitive HMI, multi-monitoring interfaces, and customized reporting functions, while advanced cyber security features guarantee the safety and continuous operating performance demanded by smart ships. The system is applicable to all commercial vessels and is optimized for dual-fuel propulsion ships — including LNG, LPG, and methanol-powered vessels — as well as LNG carriers.

IAS TRAINING

Step-by-Step Training Support to Enhance Operational Capability

Through a systematic four-stage training program, S&SYS helps operators rapidly build proficiency in IAS operation and maintenance. We offer online/offline training,
GMS simulation, and onboard training before and after ship delivery, enabling hands-on, experience-based learning under conditions identical to actual operations.

Training Center Education

· Online/offline education on system operation and maintenance
· Focused on key functions, alarm response, and basic inspection procedures

Onboard Training

· Hands-on field training during the pre-delivery sea trial period
· Familiarization with monitoring and control procedures under actual operational conditions

GMS Simulation Program
for Enhanced System Operating Proficiency

· Provides a FAT-based GMS simulation program to enhance user proficiency

Onboard Education Service
(Warranty Onboard Service)

· System operation support and training during actual ship operations (for the 1st or 2nd vessel)
· Available as either one 30-day session or two 15-day sessions, accommodating shift schedules

SSAS-RMS (Remote Maintenance System)

SSAS-RMS is a remote maintenance system that connects to onboard systems from shore for real-time monitoring and maintenance support.

With this feature, users can receive immediate and effective maintenance service without the inconvenience of waiting for a service engineer to coordinate boarding schedules and perform onboard repairs. In addition, onboard data captured by the system is transmitted in real time, enabling shipowners and operators to analyze and improve vessel performance, efficiency, and safety based on the data.
