The Jastram azimuth grid thruster is capable of providing highly accurate dynamic positioning, responsive steering and emergency propulsion.
Mounted flush to the bottom of the vessel, it has no protruding parts which could be damaged in shallow water. A removable grid protects the horizontally mounted propeller. Smaller parts and sand are washed through the large-volume housing.
A special propeller generates effective thrust with a high volume at a low pressure.

The Veth Steering Grid is the most recent addition to the Veth product line. It is a 360° rotating bow thruster with a thought through construction.
The Veth Steering Grid has an innovative mechanical design, in which many successful parts of the Veth Bow Thruster have been used such as the steering worm wheel and main gearing. The easy to build in unit takes a limited amount of space. Thanks to the hydrodynamically optimised unit the Veth Steering Grid is very effective and can be delivered in a range from 300 to 650 hp.

OMEGA 360°Azimuth Thruster
OMEGA channel thrusters are capable of rotating through 360° and
available as 2, 3 or 4 channel designs. These units are equipped with a
'Bollard Pull' system with a capacity of 24.9 lbf/kW. They are available with
power ratings ranging from 100 to 1500 kW and can also be used as
propulsion engines for continuous operation. The thrusters can be driven
hydraulically, by a diesel engine or by an electric motor.

The Veth-Jet bow thruster installation
The Veth-Jet bow thrusters have given Veth Motoren, the inventor of this system, an international reputation. Worldwide more than 1000 units are working now.
The advantages of the Veth-Jet
There are many reasons why to choose for a Veth-Jet bow thruster installation. The main reasons are o.a.:
- Maximum thrust at minimum draught
- 360° thrust
- No protruding parts under the vessel
- High thrust about 11 kg/kW
- It is possible to manoeuvre the vessel at maximum power
- Solid construction, so long lifetime
- The 3 and 4 tunnel system can also be used as auxiliary propulsion and/or brake
- Fast steering time in about 6 to 7 seconds from PS to SB
- The propeller only turns in one direction, so reverse clutch is not necessary
The Veth-Jet panels are developped by our own electronics department and fabricated at our own premises. The electronics department uses all the potential of today's technology. The Veth electronics make driving and control simple, well-arranged and reliable

Veth tunnel thruster
For ships requiring maximum transverse force, the Veth tunnel thruster has repeatedly proved to be the best choice.
The Veth tunnel thruster consists of a tail-end with a vertically mounted NiAlBz propeller with built-in reduction. For this product too, the up-to-date design guarantees maximum operational reliability.
Besides the fixed pitch tunnel thrusters also controllable pitch units can be delivered on request. The blades are changed in pitch hydraulically.
|
|
The standard blades areskewed and feature rounded tips for optimum thrust efficiency.
The large blade area and the shape of the blades keep cavitation volume low to minimize noise and achieve optimum comfort levels inside the boat. The completely flat surface of the blades minimizes trailing under sailing
conditions and reduces the peak load on the thruster unit, thereby significantly extending the useful service life of the hydraulic system and the unit as a whole. The blades are bolted to the blade carriers and can be replaced inside the tunnel. The propeller can be designed for special applications on request.

SCHOTTEL Rudderpropellers (SRP) are combined propulsion and steering systems rated at up to 6000 kW, which convert the engine power into optimum thrust. As the underwater components can be steered through 360 degrees, the full propulsive power can also be used for manoeuvring and dynamic positioning of the ship.
Maximum manoeuvrability, optimum efficiency, economical operation, space-saving installation and simple maintenance - these are just a few of the outstanding features of this robust and reliable propulsion concept, which has proved its worth under tropical and arctic conditions in vessels of all kinds all over the globe.

Brunvoll's patented Low-Noise Thruster solution with full length double tunnel resiliently mounted, reduces noise by 11-15 dB(A) and cause less vibration.
Thruster noise represents a major problem for crews. The stress and discomfort it causes may threaten both performance and safety on board.
Quieter sailing means better sleep, improving the alertness and efficiency of the crew. Passengers enjoy a new degree of comfort.
Brunvoll introduced the low-noise thruster in 1977. Through four technological generations we have refined our patented solutions into a proven concept.

Drawing on experience in thruster drive and control systems since 1950 Jastram offer a wide range of applications:
3-step drive systems with resistor units and slip ring motors have been the most popular drives over the last few years.
Dynamic drive, a multistep drive system with resistor unit, slip ring motor and reduced starting current, is the cost-competitive alternative to controllable pitch propeller (CPP) thrusters with the advantages of the robust fixed pitch propeller (FPP).
Frequency-controlled (FC) drives accommodate the increasing demand for stepless control. Interfaces to joysticks and dynamic positioning systems as well as any other customised application can be realised by Jastram.

Sub-Atlantic's range of hydraulic thrusters have become the preferred propulsion for ROVs and cable burial/maintenance vehicles. Working in a highly aggressive environment, they have earned a reputation for reliability, efficiency and exceptional performance.
Sub-Atlantic hydraulic thrusters are reliable due to a rugged, lightweight contruction and a ceramic shaft sealing system. These thrusters also benefit from producing near equal forward/reverse efficiency within a 5% band. The data from our performance testing has been witnessed by DNV to ensure your system design performs exactly as expected. These thrusters also benefit from the ability to fit any motor displacement size to any of the four thruster sizes due to the common, one-size motor/thruster interface. This is advantageous when accuratly matching to vehicle hydraulic system parameters.
