Wärtsilä Controllable Pitch Propeller CPP

MECHANICAL DESIGN
A Wärtsilä propulsion package, is including
both hardware and mechanical design.
Based on our experience from many
installations, we know how to design the
shaftline and sterntube to ensure a lifelong
and troublefree operation with respect to
bearing and sealing problems. Another major
contribution for mechanical design is the
avoidance of any whirling, axial- or any other
natural frequencies related phenomenon
LIPSTRONIC REMOTE
CONTROL SYSTEM
10
The Wärtsilä controllable pitch propellers are
provided with customized electronic remote
control systems covering a wide range of
applications. Pitch control with constant
engine speed, and combinator control with
pitch and engine speed control with one lever,
are available as well as load control, runningup
and slow-down programmes, and also
single-lever control (Lipsstick). All controls
comply with the latest electronics standards
and the requirements for type approvals set
by all classification societies.
SHIP POWER
PROPULSION PACKAGES
GENERAL
A Wärtsilä controllable pitch propeller in
combination with an Energopac, a Wärtsilä
gearbox and engine forms a complete
propulsion package with the benefi t of a
single point of contact, both from the start of
the newbuilding project and during the ship’s
operation.
As your single point of contact we will take
care of the correct interfaces and performance of
the total package during the lifetime of the vessel.
GEARBOXES
Wärtsilä gearboxes are often supplied in
combination with controllable pitch propellers.
The gears are designed to meet the highest
standards of operational efficiency, reliability
and low noise and vibrations. Gears can be
supplied with the following configurations:
• Single-input / single-output
• Twin-input / single-output
• With built-in multiplate clutches
• Power take-off (PTO) drives
• Auxiliary propulsion drive (APD)
• Integrated hydraulic system for gear and CPP.
ENERGOPAC
Energopac is Wärtsilä’s optimised propulsion
and manoeuvring solution for coastal and
sea going vessels. The key objective is to
reduce the vessel’s fuel consumption by
integrating both propeller and rudder design.
Each Energopac will be designed to fit the
vessel and it’s sailing profile; this allows for
Energopac to be optimised fully for energy
efficiency, whilst not compromising on either
manoeuvrability or comfort levels.
