Sergayt (cell guide) replacement is a critical step in keeping container ships safe and efficient in service. At DroneMarineWorks, we inspect and replace sergayts quickly, safely and efficiently with our riding team and smart automation systems.

Why Sergayt Inspection and Replacement Matter

Sergayts are the vertical guide rails in a container ship's holds that align containers during loading and keep them in place at sea. Impacts during cargo operations, corrosion and deformation can damage them over time. Bent or worn sergayts slow down loading, put cargo and the ship's structure at risk and can lead to costly delays in port. Early inspection and proper replacement protect both operational continuity and safety.

The DroneMarineWorks Approach

Our team plans sergayt replacement with marine automation tools. On-site measurements, remote monitoring and detailed data analysis let us quickly identify which sections need to be renewed, so the maintenance plan is implemented seamlessly and accurately.

Professional Implementation with the Riding Team

Our riding team consists of experienced technicians and automation specialists. Throughout the work, the team carries out precise measurements, alignment checks and safety protocols with care, so the maintenance is completed both quickly and safely.

Maximum Efficiency Through Automation

Our automation systems plan and optimize the inspection and replacement process digitally. Measurement data collected in the field helps us detect potential issues in advance — reducing maintenance costs and minimizing interruptions to operations.
