Channel thruster

Channel thrusters have been developed especially for ships sailing in shallow waters and are used for both auxiliary and main propulsion.

Z-drive / Rudder propellers

This thruster is ideal for smaller boats and barges requiring greater manoeuvrability and 360° propulsion or steering.

Transverse thruster 

Vertical propeller thruster for seagoing vessels, available with fixed and controllable pitch propellers.
