AAApropulsion the right choice for... sustainable propulsion solutions
There is a call for greener propulsion of vessels, especially near the coastal and on inland waterways. A low CO2 footprint or even zero is the goal for many shipping companies and shipowners. Therefore, electrical propulsion systems are requested without compromising the performance of your vessel. With our progressive range of A-Pod's, is AAApropulsion a reliable and future-proof player for the maritime industry.
Energy efficient propulsion
Electric driven with low friction losses and high energy density.
Low costs
Minimize rotating parts with high quality helical gears.
Tailor-made
Acceleration sensors with remote access.
Optimal efficiency and thrust in every direction
Integrated PM electric motor
Integrated permanent magnet electric motor with hollow rotor shaft. Cooling motor through ambient water.
Long flexible propeller shaft
The long propeller shaft is perfect to absorb any shock load coming from the propeller. It has a low bending moment and can easily be replaced.
Double sealing arrangement
Double mechanical seal construction with cofferdam. Oil and or water leakage is being drawn inside, so no leakage to the ambient water.
