Propellers and shaftline systems engineered for synergy
We have decades of experience crafting propellers, shaftlines, and rudders that are designed and built to work together, a unique capability in the industry. These systems create powerful synergies that boost efficiency, steering effectiveness, and propulsive power for vessels.
With the help of our dedicated Hydrodynamic Research Centre, we meet the growing demand of shipyards, designers, and ship owners to reduce fuel consumption, cut underwater noise, and stay ahead of emissions regulations.
Our propellers have been refined for decades by a continuous cycle of research and development. To put our propeller and shaftline systems to work for your vessel, contact us today.
