In the most basic terms, Damen is known for building ships. Look deeper, though, and you will see that the process of building ships is actually more about the integration of a vast number of interconnected systems. Propulsion, energy generation, navigation, communication, monitoring and so on. And while it is true that Damen calls on specialist subcontractors to supply many of these systems, something that many people may not realize is that Damen designs, tests and manufactures a lot of these ship systems itself. More specifically, their daughter company Damen Marine Components (DMC) does. DMC designs and manufactures essential maritime equipment such as nozzles, rudders, steering gear, and more. To further optimise the characteristics of the final component, DMC often collaborates with research institutes and universities.
