Piening Propeller
Stand C01-06a At Nor-Shipping 2017, Piening Propeller will present its new controllable pitch propeller which is actuated by water hydraulic instead of oil hydraulic. The PCP (Piening controllable propeller) complies with stringent, global environmental regulations by enabling users to opt for water instead of oil when determining a medium for hydraulic pitch control. For added protection, the hub incorporates corrosion-proof materials, and the dynamically loaded areas have been bolstered with composite materials. The design received DNV GL approval in July 2016. www.piening-propeller.de
