Unlock real-time rudder insights with Becker Marine Systems

Usually, a ship’s rudder is known as a passive part, not giving any feedback on its condition. Becker Marine Systems invented two rudder monitoring systems which enable the ship’s crew for the first time to receive direct feedback from the rudder. In detail, Becker Marine Systems’ portfolio comprises these two innovative systems:

Through different sensor systems installed on the rudder components Becker’s new monitoring systems allow precise measurements instead of poor assumptions, for example about rudder neck wear. No more periodical diver inspections are necessary. Furthermore, the monitoring systems allow continuous measurement of the rudder status and offer new and enriching possibilities for rudder service and manoeuvring improvement. Operators will be able to optimise the efficiency and to minimise wear and tear.
