HYDRAULIC Z-DRIVES for FLEET BOATS. Thrustmaster’s hydraulic azimuthing Z-drive thrusters are especially suitable for fleet boats. A hydraulic Z-drive consists of a high-thrust, fixed pitch propeller on a husky propeller shaft directly coupled to Thrustmaster’s exclusive podded hydraulic motor.
Marine Propulsion Solutions Group is recognized as one of the world’s leading Z-Drive Propulsion Systems Manufacturer and introduces its unique Direct Engine Drive and Electric Podded Rotatable Propulsion Units for all types of Marine vessels.
A Z-drive is a type of marine propulsion unit. Specifically, it is an azimuth thruster. The pod can rotate 360 degrees allowing for rapid changes in thrust direction and thus vessel direction. This eliminates the need for a conventional rudder.
18 lut 2019 · I’ve worked quite a few years with Azipods and I understand those pretty well I’d say, but I’m just wondering how the mechanical shafts of a Z-Drive move in order to allow the rotation of the...
There are mainly two types of power transmission systems: Z-drive system and L-drive system, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 respectively. Z-drive is the most popular one for vessels with limited height under the deck. This thruster can be used either with diesel engines or with electric motors. This system requires a
The influence of the blade pitch setting of a CPP on its bollard pull efficiency is shown in Figure 1 4 for open propellers and Figure 1 5 for propellers in nozzles, respectively. ... View in...
