Marine Hydraulic Azimuth Thruster:  

Hydraulic azimuth thruster drive the propellers by hydraulic motor. 

The hydraulic drive provides fully proportional propeller speed control in forward and reverse while the engine runs at constant speed. It is widely used in yachts, open body mud ships, easy type engineering ships and others.

Hydraulic Azimuth Thruster available with diesel or electric hydraulic drives with power ratings from 50HP to 500HP. Conversion from a simple barge or unpowered vessel can be done in as little as a few hours to less than a week without modifying the hull. The hydraulic drive is especially suited for shallow, brown water applications where debris in the water or shallow bottoms can be a problem.

Advantages:compact structure, convenient install and maintain, lower use cost, shorter production period ,low noise and others.

Key feature:
Combined design propeller and nozzle together, enlarge diameter of propeller and low down its rotate speed, which keep high propulsion efficiency and enhance thrust force.
Carefully design the rudder-rod profile and its displace from propeller, which improve propulsion efficiency and reduce vibration, especially reduce steering torque.
Adopt high-strength gear and bearing of high speed, seals and pipeline also being carefully design, which improve the system’s reliability and longevity.
The steering mechanism can be drived by electrical motor or hydraulic motor.
According to the difference of operation condition, it can be divided into three kind: FPP with nozzle, CPP with nozzle, without nozzle
