Key Features of Veth Bow Thrusters: Designed for shallow draft operations, Veth Bow Thrusters provide optimal thrust without protruding parts. They emphasize simplicity, robustness, and sustainability, using high-quality materials for durability and minimal maintenance.

Product Range: Veth Propulsion offers various bow thrusters, including the Veth Jet, Veth Compact Jet, Veth Steering Grid, and Veth Compact Grid. Each product is tailored for specific applications, featuring 360° steering, high thrust efficiency, and easy installation.

Veth Jet: Offers optimum thrust at minimum draft with 360° steering, easy installation, minimal maintenance, and suitability for harsh environments like dredging and offshore operations.

Veth Compact Jet: Provides higher efficiency at higher speeds with a 17° propeller angle, designed for minimal noise and vibrations, suitable as both a bow thruster and propulsion system.

Veth Steering Grid: Delivers maximum thrust at minimum draft with 360° steering, compact design, easy installation, and low maintenance due to robust construction.

Veth Compact Grid: Combines simplicity and efficiency with a 17° angled propeller for higher efficiency, usable as emergency propulsion, compact, easy to install, and cost-effective.

Technical Specifications: Detailed specifications include power ratings, propeller diameters, and reduction ratios, subject to application and classification requirements.

Environmental Considerations: Committed to environmental standards, including Bureau Veritas CLEAN VESSEL notation, focusing on waste management and sealing systems.

Specifications: The VCG-600 is an electric-powered, direct-drive marine propulsion system with a 17° angled propeller, offering approximately 9.5 kg per kW thrust, with a maximum electrical power of 99 kW, nominal revolutions of 1000 rates/min, and a propeller diameter of 580 mm.

Product Features: The Veth Tunnel Thruster is designed for noise and vibration reduction, offering flexible mounting and active noise suppression (ANS) through compressed air injection, reducing noise by up to 10 dB and minimizing cavitation damage.

Operation and Technology: Emphasizes advanced technology and robust products with a good price/quality ratio and excellent service. In-house developed control systems offer features like autopilot and DP interfaces, user-friendly with low power consumption and customizable options.

Veth Bow Thrusters-2

‘Innovation and development are part of our DNA’ Shallow draft A major advantage of a horizontal propeller is that Veth Propulsion believes in the power of simplicity, optimum thrust is achieved at minimum draft, without combined with robustness and sustainability, which vulnerable parts sticking out beneath the vessel. The you will find reflected in all of its products. So there shallow draft thrusters provide high thrust even at are only few moving parts outside the gearbox, and cruising speed, because the propeller draws up the all Veth thrusters are built with minimal ductwork due water over...

Versions of the Veth Jet The Veth Jet can be driven by a diesel engine, electric motor or hydraulically. An electric or diesel-powered Impossible to sail through narrow locks without a 4 channel Veth Jet bow thruster! Ad Toonen, Technical Superintendant, short sea specialist Wijnne Barends version? The motor can be placed on one of the side channels and we can also supply a ready-made engine foundation. The Veth Jet is suitable for various disciplines and available in several variants. No space for a horizontal drive motor? No problem. Then you can choose a vertical-drive unit. Also, a Veth Jet...

Veth Compact Jet Are you looking for a bow thruster which ensures minimal noise at maximum thrust and minimum draft, which also can be used as propulsion? Then the Veth Compact Jet offers you a suitable and unique solution. The Veth Compact Jet can be found only at Veth Propulsion. It is part of the shallow draft family: with its horizontal propeller. A special feature of the Veth Compact Jet is that the propeller is placed at an angle of 17°. In practice this means more efficiency and higher thrust on a sailing vessel. Because you can install the Veth Compact Jet in rubber mounts and the thrust...

For Scylla, the Veth Compact Jet is the ideal combination of a silent bow thruster and emergency propulsion. In conjunction with the Veth Z-drives our ships are very maneuverable, even in high winds. Bart Vos, Naval Architect, Scylla AG Veth Propulsion is continually looking for solutions to meet the highest quality standards and latest regulations, including those for the environment. For example, by limiting of the impact of our operations on the environment. The Bureau Veritas CLEAN VESSEL notation is an additional notation that imposes requirements on waste management, anti-fouling systems...

Veth Bow Thrusters-8

Ideal to use as propulsion By combining maximum thrust in any position with the fact that there are no vulnerable parts protruding below the hull, the Veth Compact Jet is also ideal to use as propulsion. Because the propeller shaft is mounted at a 17° angle in the thruster, the intake duct is directed forward allowing it to draw in water more easily, even at higher speeds. The outflow channel rotates simultaneously, with the same thrust in any direction, resulting in stable and predictable steering performance. The hydraulic system is also similar to that of our Z-drives. This solution has already...
