As the core component of a ship's propulsion system, the performance of a propeller directly affects the ship's navigation efficiency and stability. The marine propellers carefully developed by our company integrate advanced design concepts and exquisite manufacturing techniques, dedicated to providing excellent propulsion solutions for various types of ships.

Marine propellers are installed below the waterline at the stern of the ship and are powered by the main engine to rotate. During operation, the propeller blades rotate rapidly to push water violently toward the rear of the ship. In accordance with Newton's Third Law, the water generates an equal and opposite reaction force, which serves as the driving force for the ship to move forward.

Essentially, a propeller is composed of a set of airfoils, and its working principle is similar to that of an aircraft wing. An aircraft wing utilizes the geometric shape variation of the airfoil and the angle of attack of the incoming flow to create different velocities of the fluid flowing over the upper and lower surfaces of the wing. According to Bernoulli's Law, this velocity difference leads to a pressure difference between the upper and lower surfaces of the airfoil, thereby generating lift. The component of the lift from the propeller's airfoils in the forward direction is the thrust that propels the ship forward.

Our fixed pitch propellers are meticulously designed by a professional team of hydrodynamics experts. Combining years of accumulated experience and massive amounts of data, the team conducts customized design and production based on the unique characteristics of each ship and the personalized needs of customers. During the design process, propeller efficiency, noise, and vibration requirements are taken as core considerations to ensure that the ship exhibits optimal performance under different navigation speeds and power density conditions.

For example, in the application of ocean-going ships such as container ships, oil tankers, bulk carriers, dry cargo ships, and passenger liners, fixed pitch propellers have become the first choice for many shipowners due to their stable and reliable performance.

The pitch of the propeller blades can be flexibly adjusted according to the actual operating conditions of the ship during navigation, such as different water area environments, cargo loads, and speed requirements. When the ship sails in shallow water channels, the pitch can be appropriately reduced to lower the propulsive force, avoiding damage to the propeller caused by complex water flows. When sailing in deep seas for long distances and requiring high-speed navigation, the pitch is increased to improve propulsion efficiency.

This flexibility enables the ship to maintain efficient and stable operation under various complex and changing navigation conditions. Our company can provide controllable pitch propellers in a variety of specifications with blade diameters ranging from 1120mm to 6700mm, and the maximum transmitted power can reach 17000kW, meeting the diverse needs of different ship types and shafting arrangements.

The propellers are optimally designed using advanced hydrodynamics principles. The shape and angle of the propeller blades are accurately calculated and shaped, allowing the propeller to convert the power output by the engine into strong thrust more efficiently. Compared with traditional propeller designs, the new-type propellers can significantly reduce energy consumption.

Practical tests have shown that after some ships are refitted with our propellers, fuel consumption is reduced by 10% - 15%, and the cruising range is effectively extended. This not only greatly reduces operating costs but also responds to the global trend of green shipping and reduces environmental pollution.

Whether in rough deep seas or narrow and complex shallow water channels, our propellers can demonstrate excellent adaptability to ensure the stable navigation of the ship. The propeller blades and hubs are made of special materials with outstanding durability and corrosion resistance. Even in harsh marine environments with high salt content and complex water flows, they can maintain good working conditions for a long time, reducing the frequency and cost of maintenance and extending the service life of the propeller.

In addition, the design of controllable pitch propellers allows the ship to quickly adjust the propeller pitch according to real-time navigation conditions, flexibly changing speed and thrust to cope with various complex situations with ease.

During the propeller design process, advanced technical methods such as large skew propellers and optimized disk area ratio are adopted, combined with a large amount of experimental data for repeated verification and adjustment, which effectively reduces cavitation and vibration generated by the propeller during operation.

This not only improves the ship's navigation performance and ensures that the speed and towing force meet the requirements but also significantly enhances the overall service performance and economy of the ship. At the same time, the low-noise and low-vibration characteristics create a more comfortable and quiet navigation environment for crew members and passengers.

Recognizing that each ship has unique hull structures, navigation needs, and operating environments, our company has a professional design team capable of conducting comprehensive engine-propeller-ship matching optimization designs based on the specific requirements of different ship types and shafting arrangements.

From the initial scheme conception to detailed drawing design, and finally to production, manufacturing, installation, and commissioning, we provide customers with one-on-one customized services throughout the process. This ensures that the propeller is perfectly matched with the ship's engine and hull, realizing high efficiency and low energy consumption of the propulsion system and meeting the personalized needs of customers to the greatest extent.

The oil distributor has two structures: one installed at the front end of the gearbox and the other on the shafting. After a large number of actual ship tests, it has the characteristics of reliable structure and flexible operation.

Widely used in various merchant ships such as container ships, oil tankers, bulk carriers, and dry cargo ships. These ships usually need to operate continuously and stably under different routes, cargo loads, and speed requirements. With their high efficiency, energy-saving, stable, and reliable performance, our propellers can significantly reduce operating costs, improve transportation efficiency, and bring significant economic benefits to merchant ship operations.

In passenger ships such as passenger liners and cruise ships, the propeller is not only required to have good propulsion performance but also has strict requirements for noise and vibration control during operation. Through optimized design, our company has effectively reduced the noise and vibration levels of the propeller, providing passengers with a more comfortable navigation experience and ensuring the safe and comfortable operation of passenger ships.

Engineering ships such as offshore platform engineering ships and dredgers require propellers to adapt to complex working conditions and special work requirements during operation. Controllable pitch propellers can flexibly adjust the pitch according to the actual needs of engineering operations, providing precise thrust control and ensuring the smooth progress of engineering operations.

Special ships such as maritime surveillance ships, scientific research ships, and naval ships have extremely high requirements for the performance and reliability of propellers. In the design and manufacturing process of our propellers, these special needs are fully considered, and advanced technologies and high-quality materials are adopted to ensure that the propellers can operate stably under various harsh environments and complex tasks, providing a solid guarantee for the mission execution of special ships.
