One of our latest upgrades is for Mariner of the Seas, a cruise ship owned by Royal Caribbean International. In 2017, Valmet received an order to upgrade its Damatic XDi automation system to the latest Valmet DNA technology.
Many older vessels are due for upgrades in order to meet a range of new and upcoming safety and environmental regulations. Valmet DNA is a great cost-effective tool to support them."

Customer challenge
All computer-based infrastructures evolve. Many older vessels are due for upgrades in order to meet a range of new and upcoming safety and environmental regulations.
Damatic, Damatic Classic, Damatic XD, Damatic XDi, Damatic DNA, Metso DNA are all older names for what has evolved today into Valmet DNA. Avoiding a costly refit of the entire automation system, Valmet makes new system features available through simple upgrades. There is no need to replace the existing I/Os.
An updated user interface means your crew has better tools at hand. You can also integrate the most recent energy-saving features of Valmet DNA, which is designed specifically to help vessels keep on top of fuel usage efficiency and environmental requirements. One of the new tools is a history storage and data analyzing and reporting tool: Valmet DNA Operate Trend and Event Archive, which gives operators a whole new dimension of process control with trends, replay, and alarm and event analysis.
