the Veth Compact Grid is the right option for you. Advantages of the Veth Compact Grid • Very simple and robust design • Higher efficiency by placing the propeller at an angle of 17 degrees • Maximum thrust with minimum immersion • 360 degree steering • Very favourable price and technology ratio • Can be used as an emergency propulsion • Compact and easy to build • Electric and hydraulic drive options available
No gearbox, directly driven by electric motor

resulted in an attractive price, and limited maintenance is required. Operation The propeller is driven by a hydraulic or electric motor. With a VCG400 and VCG-600 it is placed directly on the propeller. With the VCG-750 a reduction gear unit is used. Water is sucked through the propeller at an angle under the vessel. The water needs to bend less, resulting in a higher yield. The water is then guided to the outside through a hydrodynamic streamlined housing, passing through a grill. This grill is directly controllable through 360 degrees.
