Hybrid propulsion technology Marine Propulsion Systems

David and Goliath: Instead of working against each other, small tugs and huge cargo container ships work together. The latter are irreplaceable for the global transport of goods and cover long distances in demanding seas. But when it comes to manoeuvring in the port area, the steel giants are dependent on the help of “tuggers”. Neptune’s new EuroTug 3515 is one of them. Since robustness and performance are particularly important here, the Dutch shipyard relies on ZF technology, the hybrid-capable ZF W5355 PTI transmission Combining the best of two worlds In view of increasingly stringent regulations...

Hybrid technology from one source Thruster ZF is expanding its already wide range of hybrid-ready marine transmissions with the ZF 5200 PTI as down angle version underlines the claim of being a complete driveline supplier. Control Cabinet Transmission (hybrid) Electric Motor The drive is based on synchronous reluctance assisted permanent magnet technology (SRPM) offering undisputed benefits for the operator: • Liquid-cooled for high peak and continuous loading • Compact design and light weight, allowing retrofit of conventional drivelines • Works as generator for maximum flexibility in the power...
