Damen Marine Components Component
Rotor Manoeuvring System (RMS)
Damen rotor manoeuvring system using a submerged rotating composite tube (Magnus effect) to add bow steering power for inland vessels, operating from 6 km/h.
Description
The Rotor Manoeuvring System (RMS) from Damen Marine Components increases steering power in the bow and improves course stability, particularly for unloaded ships in crosswinds. It works on the Magnus effect: a submerged rotating composite tube generates a lift force.
Key features
- Operates at sailing speeds of 6 km/h or more, taking over when the bow thruster stops working
- Fast changeover between port and starboard
- Fewer steering movements, reducing resistance and fuel consumption
- Compact compared with conventional rotor bow manoeuvring and bow thruster systems
Applications
Inland and shallow-water vessels on winding rivers and waterways prone to strong crosswinds.
