For more than 30 years we have had a genuine focus on emerging maritime technologies and cutting-edge ship designs, resulting in us leading the industry in the development of innovative commercial and defence platforms.
Our extensive experience in the maritime domain set us up for success in the development of our platform systems, enhancing our shipbuilding offering and providing our customers with the capability they need to connect communities.
Enhancing crew and passenger travel
Motion Control System
First delivered in 1997, our Motion Control System has been constantly evolving to ensure our customers, and theirs, enjoy a better at sea experience. Through an advanced stability program that controls interceptors, roll fins, trim tabs and T-foils, our system improves seakeeping capability and reduces vessel motion at sea.
Communicating over an integrated digital network installed in a vessel, our system comprises hydraulically or electrically actuated control surfaces directed by commands from a central control unit. An array of sensors located throughout the vessel measures motion and sends data to a central control unit which monitors the output and, through an advanced algorithm, computes the required damping forces required for each of the control surfaces to achieve an optimum ride - adjusting them in real time.
Operator override, adjustment and management is always available from the engineer’s control station, with remote monitoring available via mobile devices elsewhere on board, or on shore through our MARINELINK system.
Optimising vessel operations in an evolving maritime world
MARINELINK
Our proprietary, integrated ship control and monitoring system enables real-time visibility and remote management of onboard machinery, equipment, systems and processes.
Built on decades of experience, MARINELINK has been refined into an intuitive platform that enhances safety, efficiency and decision making across a vessel’s entire lifecycle.
Offering a comprehensive product suite to meet varied customer needs in an evolving maritime world
MARINELINK remains a future-ready platform that continues to evolve alongside the needs of commercial and defence fleets ensuring sustained reliability and operational capability.
