THE STANDARD IN THE SHIPPING INDUSTRY
The heart of onboard loading operations is the loading instrument. With 65 percent of the market share in container shipping, MACS3 is leading the way for safe and efficient loading operations.
The Navis MACS3 loading computer utilizes a wide range of hydrostatic, stability and strength calculations to ensure fast decision making for the safe loading and unloading of all vessel types. MACS3 is type-approved and certified for on-board use by all major classification societies.
In our digital world, the loading computer is no longer an onboard proprietary stand-alone solution. Instead, it is a valuable data source for the entire ocean supply chain. MACS3 recognizes the importance of efficient information sharing between owners, technical managers, charterers, terminal, and port authorities by providing various cloud services, such as the MACS3 Connected and MACS3 API Services.
MACS3 has been in the market since 1984 as SEACOS MACS3. The ship library of Navis MACS3 includes approximately 5,000 vessel profiles. As the industry standard, MACS3 has been deployed for training by maritime universities worldwide.
