  • METHOD AND DEVICE FOR SMOOTHING A SURFACE OF A COMPONENT, PARTICULARLY OF LARGE STRUCTURES
    Publication number: 20120138207
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for smoothing a surface of a component, e.g., of large structures, as for example ship hulls for subsequent painting, is disclosed. An exemplary method may include measuring an unevennesses of the surface of the component, levelling the unevennesses by material removal and/or by material application of a levelling mass, adding reference markings at certain locations on the surface to be measured before the measurement of the surface, and taking account of the reference markings during the measurement of the unevennesses of the surface.
