Voith Turbo

Voith Inline Thruster (VIT) & Inline Propulsor (VIP)

Seawater-cooled rim-drive electric thruster (VIT) and swing-out 360° rim-drive propulsor (VIP) for yachts, offshore and special ships.

The Voith Inline Thruster is a rim-drive transverse thruster: the motor is integrated in the ring around the propeller, giving direct power transfer, low noise and vibration, and a compact installation. The motors are seawater-cooled, maintenance-free and drive bronze propellers. The Voith Inline Propulsor uses the same technology in a swing-out unit that can pivot 360 degrees. Both are used on yachts, offshore oil and gas and wind vessels, and special ships.
