Discover the fascinating mechanics of the RoRo (Roll-on/Roll-off) ship in our latest video! Journey with us as we dive into the complex process of loading and unloading thousands of cars and heavy machinery, offering you a first-hand glimpse into this significant transportation method used by manufacturing industries worldwide. Understand why RoRo ships are crucial to efficient logistics and marvel at their extraordinary design that accommodates numerous vehicle types.
From exploring the unique designs of RoRo ships, including their ramps and decks, to detailed explanations of the varying types of these vessels, we've got you covered! Delve into the workings of leading ship manufacturers like HOEGH Autoliners, with an awe-inspiring capacity of more than 6,900 standard-sized cars.
Our tour also takes you to the Copenhagen Malmo port, one of the largest loading and unloading ports in Northern Europe, and provides insight into its efficient and secure handling of vehicles. Learn about the essential pre-loading processes from the factory to the RoRo ship, the integral role of cargo plans, the methods to secure the cargo, and the meticulous inspection processes that ensure utmost safety.
We also touch upon an alternative to RoRo ships - the use of conventional cargo ships and containers, explaining the innovative R-rack system that enables quick and easy vehicle loading.
Enjoy the visual journey through included footages of the actual loading and unloading processes, giving you an in-depth understanding of this remarkable engineering feat.

As a retired captain i spent the last 21 years of my career on ro/ro- car carriers, and i do belive you should have done better research on some of the items you described in the video. 1. You said that the lashing gang are officers, nope they are ordinary stevedores. 2. The rolltrailers used are called MAFI trailers and were invented by MAFI Transport Systeme GMBH in Germany. Not by any shipping company. 3. Large and heavy units are placed on the maindeck or if possible below. This for stabilityreason. Also the heavy cargo is spread evenly longitudinal vise to avoid excess trim, and excess stressmoment on the hull. This simply if the vessel is loaded wrong with to much weight in one end she will be trimmed to much on the stern and building up stressmoment, you will then have to ballast the in such way you get the bow down increasing the stress on the hull, this can then lead to the vessel breaking in two. Not a good situation.

@@wasserdrucker6227Yes i have had once a fire onboard a vessel, fortunatly it was in a voidspace that among other thinge maine engine exhaustpipe and also the fuealline for the boiler, The fuelline cracked and sewnt oil over to the exhaust line insulation wich got covered and ignited by the exhaust pipe, it was discovered by one of the enginers as he could feel the heat and also see that the paint on the bulkhead in the cargohold had started getting brown. Firealarm sounded and main engine was stopped. After the engine was stopped we carefully unbolted the manhole cover partially and sneaked a mist nozzle in the area and started misting it down, and finally extinguished the fire with that. Our way of conducting firedrills varies a little regarding if you are on a pure car/truck carrier or on a large ro/ro vessel due to the composition of the cargo, But pc/tc was usual team setup 2 smokediver teams 1 support team 1 tech team 1 first aid team and one engine team. Fifi was planned on 1 smokediving team to asess and fight the fire , 1smokediving team for boundry cooling, tech team to close all ventilation , support team to bring fwd hooses powder extinguishers, new tanks for the smokedivers etc. enginroom team was manning engine runnig pumps bothfor the firefighting but also for discharge any water from cargoholds. As of CO2 quenching of the fire we had to make sure that the compartment that had the fire ha to be compleatly sealed off from the rest of the vessel this due to the sad fact thet the size of the compartmant in some occasions would take most of the CO2 we had onboard. But we considered CO2 as the last resort to be used in the cargoholds.

In 2005, I was a crew member aboard NCLA's M/S Pride of America during her final weeks of construction at The Lloyd-Werft Shipyard in Bremerhaven Germany. In the few short weeks before the America's Sea Trials, I witnessed many Roll-On Roll-Off Vessels offloading & loading their cargo at a nearby port just adjacent to the shipyard. I found it fascinating to watch how quickly they could turn one of these MASSIVE vessels around! Thousands of passenger cars, trucks, & SUV's loaded in to the ship in a matter of hrs, only to have another massive roll on roll off come into port, empty it's cargo, and be reloaded, and sent off to it's destination within the same day as the first vessel. It's a sight behold, and I consider an enormous privilege to have a front row seat and a firsthand witness of multiple turn arounds/day, everyday for a few weeks. These vessels are truly modern engineering marvels!

For instance new car smell in a brand new car that has not been open for a few months gives me a migraine after a few cars also the decks are just tall enough that you have to bend your head down to walk. On the up side the floors are smooth on each deck and when the cars still had hand break's you could do some drifting.

For loading & unloading of new built cars how does the organising the car’s keys work. I could imagine that would be a nightmare job keeping organised especially when multiple manufactures of 5000 cars are being loaded? Are ‘master’or even ‘grand master’ keys involved for each manufacturer? Those keys I would assume need to be set with compatible immobilisers fobs to let the keys function properly. Interesting security issue.

That started a fire that the port couldn't put out FOR EIGHT DAYS. Millions of gallons of water. And everything was cinders at the end. That's the risk of these lithium battery assemblies. Can't "park" them on a docked ship! I know now I don't want one in my garage. I care about the houses of my neighbors. People's insurance companies should raise their home insurance due to EV hazard.

After unloading another set if train cars were loaded to go back to the Lower 48. The only problem with loading and unloading was when the tide went out and the ramp from the ship to the dock was too steep to move rail cars.

@@donaldberger9163 I think the content creator meant to indicate 1.5 million _dollars_ -- the math works out on that number and value. But selected KZfaq comments have to be immature, and I'm just the one to do it!

Where is the ro ro car carrier ship with 3900 cars on it which was on fire just north of the Dutch Frisian islands, then under tow by Smit Salvage company at 1-1/2 knots? The Frisian Islands are a critical migratory birds refuge of global importance.

It is very impressive that this car-carrier can transport so many vehicles but also very concerning. If just ONE of these is an electric vehicle and it ignites spontaneously then the whole ship is LOST as happened yesterday [July 26th 2023] in the North Sea.

I just got back from working on such ship. During my time there, they had made a mistake and put 10 electric vehicles on the lowest deck (Deck 1), at the very aft of the ship (the engine room is located on that side as well). I had to go check the temperature of these 10 cars every single day because we were afraid that something might happen to them. It was just too hot - cars' temperature would go as high as 60-65 Celsius. Luckily, nothing happened this time. Nevertheless, we're risking too much because there's simply no time to think and plan properly when loading. There's a lot of pressure coming from the charter's side and they're always rushing not thinking about the life and safety of those on board.

Your heading is misleading... Guess it's just clickbait. But quite accurate otherwise. I've been working as a mechanic on the ROROs for about 15 years. Love my job. Most hectic part is when there's second hand , used vehicles. Cars, trucks, heavy machinery, mining equipment etc. Real scraps that's going to 3rd world countries. Then everybody has to pitch in. The low trailers are mafia. And it's towed by the "tugmastet". The tugmastet is one of the most impressive vehicles ever. And just to add, the crew does nothing during the discharge or loading. It's all done by the stevedores - private contractors specialing in this job.

Since the cars are placed so very close together on the ship, how do the drivers get in/out of the cars? Through the windows which would then have to be left open?
@Jan96106
@Jan96106 6 ай бұрын
If you watch closely, they park close to one car on the passenger side, so they can get out on the driver side before the next car parks close to it. And so on.

The video is good, but the title isn't necessarily representative of the video. The title leads you to think you'd see living quarters, learn what the sailors do in their spare time, etc. This is more about what the ship holds and how it loads and unloads.
