Description
Description | The Samudrayaan project aims to send a three-member crew into the deep ocean up to a depth of 6km using a human-rated submersible called Matsya-6000. The project involves the development of a Human Occupied Vehicle (HOV) with a titanium personnel sphere designed to withstand extreme underwater pressure and temperature. A critical milestone was achieved with the successful high-penetration electron beam welding of the titanium sphere, a first in India, enabling the submersible to withstand pressures up to 600 bar. |
