Bow thruster

The TMS bow thruster series have been designed so as to make their application as versatile as possible. First, designed for passenger's vessels, their application range on yachts have been extende, maintaining the same rigid design criteria required for larger ships.

The TMS bow thruster can be operated by an electrical, hydraulic or mechanical transmission, according to the specific needs.

The prime mover, flanged to the propeller pod, operates a bevel gear, which transmits the power to the shaft. The mechanical gears are made of high tensile material, providing a long working life even under heavy duty conditions.
Particular care was given to the design of the gear adpoting a Gleason tooth profile. This guarantees excellent efficiency of the transmission while providing considerable noise reduction compared to other design options.
In order to lower the noise inside the hull even further, the transmission is coupled to the prime mover utilising an elastic coupling and shock absorbers.

The pod shape derives from the need of reducing the hydrodynamic drag to a minimum. In order to minimise the flow resistance; the pressure distirbution on the thruster body has been thoroughly analysed, considering its assembling inside the tunnel. The advanced propeller design provides a high propulsive efficiency, avoiding any cavitation effects under all operational conditions. This is important since cavitation causes great loss of thrust as well as noise and vibration.
