Scope
Design, installation and worldwide service
A custom propeller shaft installation with flexible couplings and thrust block, engineered and installed by Rubber Design.
The project
Strict sound targets for a new build
The yard required very low noise and vibration levels in the guest areas. Rubber Design was involved early in the design to integrate the complete propulsion package.
Our solution
One integrated propulsion package
Thrust block, flexible shaft couplings, gearbox mounts and engine mounts were designed as one system.
- Water-lubricated propeller shaft installation
- Flexible marine couplings
- Compact thrust block
Service
Installed and supported worldwide
Our field engineers supervised the installation and remain available for maintenance and service worldwide.
