Bow thrusters

Bow thrusters

Lateral manoeuvrability for every operating condition

Eurodredging bow thrusters represent the most effective solution for lateral vessel movement, specifically designed for applications up to 10 Bar of external pressure. These hydraulic transverse thrusters guarantee the manoeuvrability required for precision operations, complex mooring and position keeping during work.

The range is divided into two distinct series: CNBT-L for light and medium applications, and CNBT-H for heavy-duty use and larger vessels. Each series has been developed to meet specific operational requirements, from agile handling of smaller units to the control of work or leisure craft in demanding marine conditions.

Hydraulic technology ensures immediate and adjustable response, allowing precise control of lateral thrust. The wide range of available power outputs, from 18 kW to 740 kW, allows adaptation to any type of vessel, while robust construction guarantees reliability even in the most severe operating environments.

Bow thruster

CNBT-L Series

  • Compact power range: from 18 to 177 kW in seven sizes (018–500), ideal for smaller vessels and operations in protected waters
  • Optimised propeller diameters: from 250 to 970 mm to ensure propulsive efficiency even with reduced power and minimise installation bulk
  • Operational flexibility: variable operating pressures from 200 to 280 Bar for optimal adaptation to existing hydraulic system characteristics
Bow Thruster CNBT-H

CNBT-H Series

  • High available powers: from 90 to 740 kW in eight sizes (125–1000), designed for large vessels and demanding operating conditions
  • Constant performance: uniform operating pressures between 250–280 Bar to guarantee reliable performance in all load conditions
  • Robust construction: propeller diameters from 700 to 1600 mm to handle high lateral thrusts while maintaining efficiency and durability over time Eurodredging
