INNOVATION
Introducing the
MVT solution
MVT is a Mechanical Variable Transmission that takes the power transmission to the vessel's propeller to a whole new level. This innovative mechanical solution is electronically controlled and provides:
Reduced fuel consumption
by up to 40%
Complete protection of engine overloads | Increased engine operating life
A wide range of control of thrust and power
Better use of engine
power
Significantly improved propeller efficiency at low RPMs
Up to 30% reduction in CO2 emissions
MVT has a longer service life than other transmission solutions
MVT significantly increases the ship's thrust at the lowest RPMs of the existing engine
MVT –
The Mechanical Variable Transmission
-
Gear engagement is performed by a very compact Mechanical Super Coupling (MSC).
​
-
The MSC's design allows gear engagement without need of synchronization.
​
-
The engagement/disengagement of gears is controlled by a single independent shaft.
-
The MSC size is extremely compact thus the MVT gearbox is very compact.
-
Combines all advantages of automatic type and manual type transmissions.
-
Mechanical simplicity of design means high reliability and low maintenance cost.
MSS –
The Mechanical
Soft Start
The MSS is truly 3 systems in one and electronically controlled with the following features:
-
Idle running of the motor (no-load start)
-
Creeping mode (speed reducer mode) –
with maximum gear ratio of the MSS, the speed of the output shaft is minimal.
-
Smooth start-up – the RPM of the output shaft can be adjusted from zero up to the speed of the input shaft.
-
Full clutch mode when the RPM of the output shaft is equal to the RPM of the input shaft.
-
Possibility of unlimited long high-thrust operation at extremely low output speeds.
-
Torque at low output speeds (speed reducer mode) can exceed 10-20 times the torque of the power source.
The MSS combined with MVT is THE solution for heavy duty applications where smaller motors can move more mass using less power.
