Four- or five-bladed propellers are available with fixed pitch, in ducted or un-ducted configurations.

Advanced Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Tools are used to analyze thruster behaviors under a full range of operating conditions, optimizing thrust output and efficiency.

Precision bevel gears provide the highest reliability. Pinion and gear are rough-machined, case-hardened and then finished with HPG precision hard-cut technology.

97° tilted propeller axis and nozzle deliver increased thrust of up to 25% compared to 90° axis arrangements. Propellers and nozzles are custom-designed for each application.

Power transmission components are designed with industry-leading service ratings and safety factors.

Innovative hydraulic mounting system and self-aligning curved tooth couplings significantly shorten installation time and associated maintenance costs.

Pressure compensation system for semi-submersible vessel automatically adjusts the internal pressure of the thruster’s outboard unit to ensure maximum shaft seal life and greatly diminish the risk of water ingress.

Operating Parameters

  • Power ratings to 9000 kW (12 000 hp)
  • Propeller diameters to 6.0 m (19.7 ft)
