Electric Well-mounted Azimuth Thruster
Application
An electric well-mounted azimuth thruster is a type of propulsion system that is commonly used in marine vessels. It consists of an electric motor that drives a propeller or impeller, which is mounted on a movable pod or housing that can rotate 360 degrees around a vertical axis. The well-mounted design means that the thruster is installed in a well or tunnel in the hull of the vessel. Additionally, the well-mounted design allows for optimal positioning of the thruster, which can result in better performance and efficiency. The thruster can also be used to provide a secondary source of propulsion, which can increase the redundancy and safety of the vessel.
