NAVILUS Multiple Input/Single Output Marine Gearboxes: Flexible, high-efficiency for multi-engine ship propulsion.
NAVILUS Multiple Input / Single Output Marine Gearboxes, developed by Flender, are specialized marine gear units tailored for multi-engine ships, core to marine propulsion systems by directing power from multiple diesel engines or electric motors to a single propeller[2
Constructed with premium industrial materials and precision manufacturing, the gearboxes feature torsionally rigid housings that ensure stable gear meshing even in rough seas, with robust components built to withstand the demanding marine operating conditions[6]. T
Key specifications include a power rating of up to 50,000 kW per engine, with the ability to handle combined power from multiple engines for large-scale propulsion needs[2[5]
Core advantages include minimal noise and vibration, highest transmission efficiency, and an optimum power-to-weight ratio, enhancing on-board comfort and operational cost-effectiveness
Common applications include passenger ships, ferries, supply ships, and large-scale ferries, as well as other multi-engine marine vessels[2[5][6]]. They play a critical role in ensuring reliable propulsion and operational flexibility, even in unforeseen circumstances. Overall, NAVILUS Multiple Input / Single Output Marine Gearboxes are a trusted, customizable solution that combines Flender’s engineering excellence with flexible design, delivering efficient, reliable power transmission for the global marine industry.
Multiple-input/single-output marine gearboxes direct the output of several diesel engines or electric motors to a propeller. Here, different drive concepts can be implemented. Via clutches, the gearboxes can be driven in single- or twin-engine operation. Frequently, there are special requirements for low noise emission. These gearboxes are used for passenger ships, ferries, and supply ships and offered by FLENDER for power ratings of up to 50,000 kW per engine. Higher power ratings and special solutions are available on request.
