Marine Diesel Engine Azimuth Thruster

Marine Diesel Engine Azimuth Thruster


Marine diesel engine azimuth thruster is a sophisticated piece of marine propulsion equipment designed to offer essential maneuverability and control for vessels. Unlike traditional fixed propellers, an azimuth thruster is a type of propulsion unit that combines the propulsion and steering mechanisms into one integrated system. This design allows for 360 degree rotation of the thruster unit, which means the vessel can be steered in any direction without the need for a rudder.

Feature:

Flexible rotation

Wear resistant

Low noise and vibration

For extreme load conditions


Overview

At the heart of an azimuth thruster system is the marine diesel engine, which powers the rotation of thruster and the propulsion propeller. The diesel engine provides robust and reliable power, essential for the demanding conditions of marine environments. The diesel engine is usually connected to a gearbox that drives the shaft, which is mounted on a steerable pod that rotates 360 degrees around the vertical axis.
