Ship propeller SCP series

variable-pitchshaft drive4-blade

Efficient, reliable, flexible - The SCHOTTEL controllable pitch propeller combines maximum thrust with high reliability, low operation costs and user-friendly operation. A wide range of designs, decades of experience and more than a thousand references in practice enable us to realize the optimum propulsion train for your vessel’s mission profile. Advantages At a glance Full-feathering mode (optional) Ergonomic operation with the latest remote-control technology Variable modular system for adaptation to your specific requirements EAL approved to prevent pollution Maintenance-friendly design Tried and tested in thousands of practical applications Robust and reliable construction Maximum thrust thanks to many years of experience in propeller design Efficient and silent due to modern design methods such as CFD IN DETAIL Precision performance The SCP allows the propeller blades to be adjusted in pitch for manoeuvring and to adapt to changing operating conditions. The propellers are designed according to the customer’s individual requirements using state-of-the-art calculation methods such as software-based flow simulation (CFD). These ensure that the SCP meets the specific requirements of the customer. The operator thus benefits from a high degree of efficiency with lower fuel and operating costs. SCHOTTEL has enhanced its CP propeller design with its newest generation of controllable pitch propeller hubs. The improved hub shape considerably reduces the risk of cavitation, which may otherwise occur due to the high loads in applications with higher speeds.
