4 Veth Propulsion by Twin Disc

SUSTAINABLE, SILENT AND READY FOR TOMORROW ELITE™ represents a fully electric thruster designed to enhance yacht efficiency while significantly lowering emissions. Moreover, it leverages advancements from Veth’s Contra Rotating Z-drive and Integrated L-drive product lines to achieve optimal noise and vibration reduction. This improvement not only benefits marine ecosystems but also significantly enhances the onboard experience, serving as a reward for environmental stewardship. This ensures its preparedness for the future, regardless of the challenges that may arise. COMPACT FOR EXTRA FREEDOM...

COMPONENTS BUILDING BLOCKS OF INNOVATION The optimized ELITE™ propulsion system ensures a light load on the propellers, leading to a multitude of benefits such as avoidance of cavitation, minimal noise and vibration levels, superior efficiency, and remarkable fuel economy, ultimately resulting in reduced emissions. CONTRA ROTATING PROPELLERS The Contra Rotating Propellers used in the ELITE™ series generate a greater amount of thrust, resulting in improved acceleration and higher top speeds. In addition ELITE™ offers strong benefits in terms of efficiency, manoeuvrability and a comfortable user...

PM MOTOR The ELITE™ thruster is driven by a permanent magnet (PM) motor, which is integrated as much in the design as possible, to ensure minimal build-in height. The design makes use of every millimetre, without compromising on the quality and reliability of the thrusters. On average, a PM motor is 40% to 60% more compact than an asynchronous motor. The application of PM motors, when combined with the special installation method, the alignment of the headsets and the adjustments to the control box, results in a very compact solution. The ELITE™ series features an efficiently streamlined tail...
