Complexity, made simple Courtesy of La Naval Shipyard Whilst maritime technology becomes more complex, the number of specialized staff onboard is reducing, making high levels of monitoring vital to ensure a safe work environment for crew. Accuracy and reliability are paramount to efficient operations, which is why all equipment integrated on the AlphaBridge is designed to meet and exceed international standards. Our modular concept offers true flexibility to integrate sophisticated navigation and control systems from a diverse portfolio of technology, for any class and size of ship.

Bridge operation, made easy The maritime world first became familiar with the AlphaBridge concept in 2007 when Alphatron Marine introduced a compact, modular bridge solution based on standard control panels in a neat, simple design. Now close to 1000 vessels worldwide operate safely and efficiently thanks to the AlphaBridge. Our principle is that technology should make bridge operation easier - even for the highest class notations for vessels undertaking complex, sometimes hazardous operations. Setting standards, in space saving design The AlphaBridge aim is to minimize the space that each...

The world’s first truly modular bridge The best of Dutch design has created a unique, versatile and innovative bridge system based on the highest quality materials and manufacturing techniques. Because of its modular concept, AlphaBridge can be preassembled at Alphatron Marine workshops around the world. Factory acceptance tests are carried out before shipment, ensuring your satisfaction in the quality of our delivery. AlphaBridge is built to your requirements. For instance, you can choose screen selection by KVM switch technology or full network MFD operation or modules in steel or...

Ergonomic design, safe operation The ergonomic design of AlphaBridge follows regulations and enables intuitive, comfortable operation, which enhances the safety of your vessel. A unique facility to adjust the height of monitors and the work shelf in eight increments means that AlphaBridge is the first system to enable navigation and communication equipment operation from both a seated or standing position. Standard supply features simple manual height adjustment, while reliable electrical adjustment is available as an option.

Courtesy of Marijn van Hoorn Moored tightly, as is the concept JRC and Alphatron Marine design, build, deliver, install and provide technical support for high-spec navigation and communication equipment on board ships. Our experience and expertise enhances the safety of your ships and crews in increasingly busier shipping lanes, whilst boosting fuel efficiency and reducing emissions. The result is more efficient operations, fewer errors and ultimately, a stronger bottom line. In recent years we have taken our position as an established technology specialist and systems integrator to the...

A new definition of ergonomics The Dutch Pilot Organization ordered three new pilot station vessels. After a careful selection procedure, the AlphaBridge concept was chosen as the heart and brain of these sophisticated new crafts. In addition to advanced navigation and communication equipment, we installed various operational control desks that fully complied with the high ergonomic standards required for safe pilot operations. The interface puzzle, solved We take the AlphaBridge (with 15 to 46-inch displays) as the base and incorporate the desired observation and control elements according...

A good start, in all dimensions In close contact with the shipyard, owner and naval architect, a full 3D proposal is created before the actual bridge layout is taken into production. As a result of our flexible and modular approach, multiple variants based on the core AlphaBridge concept may be composed to ensure we offer the best solution for your vessel. All AlphaBridges carry the same DNA, with the same uniform design and control functionality that the aviation industry uses to secure safety at 30.000ft, which ensures safety and efficiency at sea level. Innovation, in form and function A...

Full control, your way Full, flexible and ergonomic control is a leading principle in the AlphaBridge system. You can choose customized joysticks or trackpad controls of the highest quality, enabling screens to be selected and controlled from a single workplace. Additional joysticks or trackpads are available in order to meet all control and layout needs of your vessel. Reflecting the flexibility of AlphaBridge, you can specify and personalize all control functions on demand.

One man bridge We have a unique, fully integrated one-man bridge with three 46-inch screens designed for offshore and coastal patrol vessels, showing radar, ECDIS, conning, alarm monitoring and dynamic positioning data at a glance from a comfortable captain’s chair with all instruments and operating panels within arms reach. The JRC Multi Function Display (MFD) forms the backbone of this ruggedized concept. Detect and identify Another variant is for use in law enforcement, semi military and/or patrol vessels which additional has a fully integrated WECDIS system by Transas. Detect and...

Achieve more, with fewer people When the radio officer was replaced by electronics 25 years ago, Alphatron Marine came up with the integrated GMDSS console, which incorporated all relevant equipment. We have been pioneering new ways of working for years, gradually harmonizing control, communication and navigation technology. We introduced uniformity to lighting and switches, created a simple click system for flexible equipment installation and developed dynamic height adjustment for displays, to name just a few of our innovations. The large 46-inch screens used on the AlphaBridge ensure...

Traditional design, ahead of its time The strengthening of the partnership between JRC and Alphatron Marine has been prompted by the ever growing Asian market and the expansion of our own product range and supplementary services in recent years. With history that spans over 100 years, JRC develops the best quality maritime products. Alphatron Marine understands the end user and has been a system integrator with an eye for ergonomics and total concepts for more than 25 years. Asia is traditionally building mainly larger vessels and the operation of the entire bridge from a sitting position...
