It's academic for Schottel,as success shows at SMM

摘要

Germany's Schottel Group was in good spirits at the SMM Exhibition in Hamburg last month, the manufacturer of propulsion and steering systems reporting a record year in 2009, with €270m in turnover.rnThe first six months of 2010 have confirmed this trend, with sales of €20 million.The balance of completed systems was also looking positive, with production figures for smaller azimuth thrusters remaining at an almost constant high level in comparison to the previous year. Increases of around 6% were recorded for the larger azimuth propulsion systems.
