Thrustmaster’s patented T-Pod, electric podded azimuthing thruster, is the most efcient and robust thruster soluton for your hybrid and diesel electric
LEADING vessel projects.
With its permanent magnet motor in the pod directly forward of the propeller, the need for right angle gears, associated shafs and bearings
THE found in other azimuth thrusters is eliminated.
This removes gear losses and improves reliability and resistance to damage due to fouling or grounding. The large propeller diameter and slender hydro-dynamically shaped pod further
WAY enhance performance in terms of efciency and thrust.
A diesel-electric power train allows the use of multple Tier 3 generators and freedom of locaton for optmal weight distributon and space utlizaton.
