The Veth Integrated L-Drive represents a significant innovation in electric propulsion. This system features a compact and highly efficient permanent magnet (PM) motor, replacing the traditionally used asynchronous motors. One of its key advantages lies in its extremely low mounting height, enabling installation below deck level and keeping critical components inside the vessel for improved accessibility and reduced vulnerability. This smart integration results in a thruster that is up to 60% more compact, making it an ideal solution for space-conscious installations across a wide range of
marine applications.

With power options ranging from 500 kW to 2,306 kW, the Veth Integrated L-Drive combines space efficiency, quiet operation, and cutting-edge technology. Its water-cooled PM motor, electrical steering, and lack of onboard gear transmission all contribute to significant noise reduction, ideal for vessels requiring minimal acoustic impact. Built using proven Veth mechanical components, the design also includes streamlined fairing plates to minimize resistance and optimize hydrodynamics. Flexible mounting and easy removal further simplify installation and maintenance. The Veth Integrated L-Drive can be equipped with open propellers, nozzles, or contra-rotating propellers, tailored to your specific application.
