SEAWORK EXHIBITOR SHOWCASE
KUMERA MARINE – HYBRID READY GEARBOX
Kumera Marine was established in 2018, when Norwegian companies Kumera (propulsion gears) and Helseth (controllable pitch propellers) merged, both companies already having relied upon decades of expertise in their respective disciplines
The young company, with a growing presence worldwide, has supplied innovative propulsion systems tailored for various workboat designs.
Innovative solutions include 90-degree CPP gears for SWATHS, twin-input gears for waterjets used in SES hulls, and hybrid (ready) V-gears for windfarm and SAR vessels.
The KMG350-V hybrid (ready) V-gearbox has an integrated servo system for controllable pitch propellers, suitable for engines up to 1100kW. The optional drop-on
PTI/PTO has a capacity of up to 250kW for permanent magnet motors. This gearbox is designed for vessels up to 32 metres, which are infamous for their often tight engine rooms.
Combined with our Helseth controllable pitch propellers, we provide optimized propulsion solutions from 200-4000kW, designed to handle the toughest workboat applications.’
