Marine Shaft System
Application
Marine shaft system is one of the most important propulsion equipment of a vessel. As a professional supplier of rudder system, we can design and manufacture the marine rudder system or rudder system components according to customer's drawings or requirements. A marine shaft system is an essential component of a vessel's propulsion system. It includes a shaft, which connects the ship's engine to its propeller, and other necessary equipment such as bearings, seals, and couplings. The marine shaft system is responsible for transmitting the rotational power generated by the ship's engine to the propeller, which in turn generates the thrust needed to propel the vessel forward.
From the design stage to dispatch, our internal quality assurance systems fully comply with marine class standard. In addition, third- party surveyors will check the process of design and fabricating to ensure the marine winch complies with all relevant specifications. And different Classification Society Certificate is also available, such as CCS, BV, RINA, etc.

Due to the fierce market competition, the phenomenon of low quality of other winch suppliers is frequent. What is the difference between us and other low-quality suppliers?
The specific differences are as follows:
|
Part name |
Other low quality suppliers |
Result |
Our factory |
Consequence |
|
Marine shaft sealing apparatus |
Generally, asbestos packing is used for sealing |
Short service life, easy to damage. |
Usually water sealed; stainless steel |
Long service life, low power loss and no pollution. With the built-in multi-channel sealing ring, the sealing effect is good. |
|
Mechanical face seals are generally used |
Expensive, cumbersome installation, and high material requirements |
Usually oil seal; stainless steel |
Large oil film bearing capacity, good oil lubrication performance, built-in multi-channel sealing ring, good sealing effect. Corrosion-resistant, low wear. |
|
|
Shaft |
Poor production process |
easy to wear |
The good production process, support for finishing |
Good quality, slow wear, cost-effective. |
|
Marine Shaft Bearing |
Not strictly in accordance with the production process and product standards |
Fast wear, high friction, easy to corrode. |
Strictly follow the production process and product standards. |
Good stability, slow wear, low friction, corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance. |
The shafting is an important part of the ship's propulsion system, and the bearing is its core part. The failure of the stern bearing will affect the operation of the entire ship, and will also increase the safety hazard of the ship.
Maintenance suggestions:
1. Inspection and measurement of shaft alignment state; measurement of runout of intermediate shaft; wear of the stern bearing subsidence measurement; and tail shaft bolt pull-out force measurement.
2. Check the fit of the propeller and the tail shaft, the assembly mark of the propeller and the shaft nut, which can be disassembled shaft fit inspection and assembly marks; bearing surface quality and wear of each gear of the shaft system
condition, and check the radial clearance of each bearing.
3. Surface quality inspection of the stern shaft, intermediate shaft and thrust shaft journal and the big end of the stern shaft cone partial inspection.
4. Check the wear of the sealing device.
5. Check the working conditions of the piping system and accessories related to the shaft system.
