ZF hybrid transmissions for an emission-free future at sea
ZF Marine offers a broad portfolio of hybrid transmissions with a power range from 600 kW to 11,500 kW. By integrating a power take-in (PTI), ZF can make conventional transmissions conect to hybrid and electric motors. ZF supplies complete systems with flexible couplings, electric pumps, inverters and electric control units. For the power range up to max. 300 kW, ZF also offers CeTrax, a suitable electric motor that was developed in-house.
Advantages
Reduced noise thanks to low-vibration
Reduction of fuel consumption
High environmental compatibility through reduced emissions
Highest installation flexibility through PTI configuration
Low life cycle costs thanks to long maintenance intervals
Robust design guarantees a long service life
Benefits
The future belongs to clean and sustainable propulsion technology
Ever more strict environmental regulations and laws on the world's oceans demand clean, sustainable propulsion technology for shipping. The hybrid transmissions developed by ZF represent an important component for the realization of environmentally-friendly propulsion systems. For ship operators, this means lower fuel consumption and lower emissions.
ZF offers the right propulsion solution for a wide range of vessel types. ZF hybrid propulsion solutions odder more operational flexibility, such as the operation of harbor tugs in stand-by-mode, electric only docking of ferries and motor yachts in harbours, as well as almost silent, low-vibration maneuvering of research vessels.
