Becker Schilling Rudder
High-lift fish-tail rudder allowing rudder angles up to ±70° for crabbing, DP and tight manoeuvring; also available as the Schilling TT twisted-trailing-edge version.
Description
The Becker Schilling® Rudder is a high-lift rudder with a fish-tail trailing edge that accelerates the flow, maximises rudder balance and improves propeller coverage. It operates at rudder angles of up to ±70° (versus ±35° for conventional semi-spade rudders), which together with a suitable steering gear makes it suited to sideways manoeuvring and Dynamic Positioning.
Key features
- Smallest turning circles even at zero speed with rudder angles of 65°–70°
- Crabbing at zero speed
- Minimal rudder hunting in autopilot mode for steady course-keeping
- Reliable astern manoeuvring and berthing control
- Suitable for operation in ice
- Reduced need for tug assistance; supports DP operations
Becker Schilling® TT Rudder
A further development with a slimmer design and twisted trailing edge, offering a balance between manoeuvrability and propulsion efficiency: high lift without movable parts, reduced maintenance, improved harbour manoeuvring, ice capability and zero-speed crabbing.
Options
- Heel pintle and heel pintle bearing for smaller vessels (fishing boats, offshore ships, workboats, tugs)
- King Support (KSR) neck bearing integrated in the blade for rudders over 20 m²
- Rudder bulb to reduce the propeller hub vortex
Applications
- Tankers
- General cargo and heavy-lift vessels
- Offshore vessels and workboats
- Fishing vessels
