Our decades of experience in Hydraulics as well as Marine Systems proved that, Manual-Hydraulic Steering systems can be used for effort-less drive of Marine Vessels requiring maximum rudder torque of 150-200 Kg.m.
When we plan Hydraulic Steering Systems for Marine Vessels requiring rudder-torque of more than 200 Kg.m, due to their higher area of rudder plate or Higher Speed, we recommend Electro-Hydraulic steering for smooth, effortless control of vessels.
COMPONENTS OF ELECTRO-HYDRAULIC STEERING SYSTEMS
HYDRAULIC ACTUATORS
A Hydraulic Actuator is planned, to turn the Tiller-Arm to both sides of the vessel, smoothly
and precisely. Oil supply ports are provided on both sides of this actuator, through which,
oil can be supplied to the piston of the actuator. As pressurised oil is supplied from the
Helm Pump to the Linear Actuator, the piston-rod will move forward or backward, depending
on, to which supply port, oil is provided. The Piston rod-end / Ram-end of this actuator has
a flexible connector, which can be coupled to the Tiller-Arm. As the driver rotates the
steering wheel to one side, oil filled in the circuit flows from one side of the circuit to
the other side of the circuit, enabling the Piston rod of Actuator to move from one side to
the other. When the driver rotates in opposite direction, the same process will repeat
resulting Piston rod movement in the opposite direction.
