Propulsion & thruster control systems
Remote control systems for main engines, CPP and thrusters, including the AutoChief 600 propulsion control system.
Kongsberg supplies propulsion and thruster control systems for its own propulsors and for third-party equipment. The AutoChief 600 is its propulsion control system for main engines and propellers, with bridge control levers and panels. Separate thruster control systems cover tunnel and azimuth thrusters and link to Kongsberg dynamic positioning and joystick systems.
