Rolls-Royce is one of the world's leading suppliers
of azimuth thrusters. Azimuthing thrusters enable the
propeller to rotate 360 degrees around a vertical axis
so that the thrusters unit can perform both propulsion
and steering duties.
The Rolls-Royce range comprises a number of standard
units. For each model there is a range of propeller
diameters and mounting arrangements with options for
controllable, fixed pitch or contra-rotating propellers
either ducted or open. The azimuthing thruster is ideal
for a wide range of vessels.
