Technical capability
Platform & Fluid Systems
Design, manufacture and support of mechanical, electro mechanical and electronic systems for surface ships and submarines.
The capability includes valves, regulators, pressure equipment, piping assemblies, steering-gear interfaces and exhaust-gas cooling and mixing arrangements. CFF’s responsibility may extend from indigenous design and material selection through manufacture, testing, documentation, installation and through-life support.
