Azimuth thruster for ships : Z-drive
(retractable) VETH MOTOREN

Veth Motoren BV has built up a great deal of experience with auxiliary drive systems in the field of offshore shipping.

The Veth-Z-Drives, in this case, are completely retractable within the ship. By means of an ingenious arch-claw clutch system, the engine can be completely detached from the driving unit by remote control.

These types of installation are usually linked to a Dynamic Positioning system and work under the most difficult circumstances.
