Voith Introduces Electric Voith Schneider Propeller

摘要

WITH GROWING DEMAND FOR ELECTRIC PROPULSION SOLUTIONS, the Voith Group is pushing ahead with the continuous electrification of its proven drive technologies and has now launched an electric version of its well-known Voith Schneider Propeller (VSP).Among the advantages claimed for the new eVSP are high efficiency and the reduction of complexity, since the permanent-magnet synchronous motor is already integrated in the propeller. The complete omission of gears reduces noise to a minimum and frees up critical space on the ship.
