Large format machining refers to the precision manufacturing of oversized components that require specialist equipment, heavy-duty material handling, and ultra-tight tolerances. It’s a discipline where scale meets accuracy and where one tiny misalignment could throw an entire project off course.
A major milestone has just been achieved in the offshore energy industry. Belgian marine construction firm Jan De Nul has launched the world’s largest and most advanced cable-laying vessel, designed to transform how offshore wind farms are connected to onshore power grids.
Unveiled at the CMHI Haimen shipyard in Jiangsu, China, the new vessel named Fleeming Jenkin, boasts an extraordinary 28,000-tonne cable-carrying capacity, making it the most capable ship of its kind ever built.
In the world of amphibious all-terrain vehicle design, innovation often begins where ordinary engineering stops. India’s newly developed ATOR N1200 is a striking example of a homegrown machine built to navigate floodwaters, mud, snow, and rugged landscapes with equal confidence.
Developed by JSW Gecko Motors, part of the JSW Group, the ATOR N1200 represents more than just a mobility solution. It’s a symbol of India’s growing capability to engineer advanced defence and rescue vehicles using indigenous fabrication and materials expertise.
Modern bridge engineering is a constant pursuit of balance between strength and flexibility, speed and precision, and between human ambition and natural limitation. Nowhere is that balance clearer than in China’s Huajiang Grand Canyon Bridge, officially the world’s tallest bridge and a landmark achievement in modern engineering.
Completed in September 2025, this colossal structure soars 625 metres (2,051 feet) above the Beipan River in Guizhou province. Built in less than four years, it connects previously isolated mountain communities, transforming what was once a two-hour detour through winding canyon roads into a two-minute drive.
