TECUMEX pROPULSION & THRUSTER SYSTEMS

TECUMEX Propulsion & Thruster Services focus on providing high-performance solutions for the propulsion systems and thrusters of maritime vessels . TECUMEX offers a comprehensive range of services designed to optimize the performance, reliability, and efficiency of propulsion systems, thrusters, and associated equipment. The offerings support both new builds and retrofits, catering to vessels across a variety of industries, including offshore, commercial shipping, and specialized maritime operations. The various P&T systems handled by TECUMEX team includes :

Azimuth Thrusters: For vessels requiring high maneuverability, azimuth thrusters are designed to provide full rotational control, ideal for offshore support vessels, tugboats, and more.
Tunnel Thrusters: For vessels needing directional stability and additional thrust during low-speed operations or while docking.
Retractable Thrusters: These thrusters are designed for vessels that need to reduce drag when not in use, making them ideal for DP vessels that must operate efficiently in varying conditions.
Controllable Pitch Propellers (CPP): CPPs that can adjust the pitch of the blades for optimal thrust and fuel efficiency.

Installation & Integration

TECUMEX provides complete installation services for Propulsion and Thruster systems on new vessels or during retrofitting operations. This includes:

Installation of Propulsion Units: Ensuring that the systems are integrated properly with the vessel’s structure, shafting, and power transmission.

Thruster Integration: Efficiently installing thrusters to ensure the vessel's stability, maneuverability, and DP system operation.
System Commissioning: Post-installation commissioning of the entire propulsion and thruster system to verify proper functionality.

Maintenance & Repairs

TECUMEX offers ongoing maintenance and repair services for thrusters and propulsion systems to ensure optimal performance and avoid costly downtime. Services include:

Routine Maintenance: Regular checks on propulsion and thruster components to ensure they function at peak efficiency, reducing the risk of system failure.
Overhaul Services: Overhauling critical components of the propulsion system, such as thrusters, gearboxes, and bearings, to restore their operational efficiency.
Repairs and Troubleshooting: TECUMEX provides diagnostics and repair services, addressing issues such as vibration, abnormal noise, and power loss in the propulsion system.

Retrofit & Upgrades
