Propulsion: MAN Alpha propeller & aft ship solutions

The MAN Alpha CP propeller designs effectively cover a power range up to 40,000 kW per shaft line. With no less than 23 different hub sizes, a cost- and performance-optimized solution is always offered. 3-, 4- and 5-bladed configurations are available.

The MAN Alpha FP propeller designs effectively cover the engine portfolio of MAN Energy Solutions. The propeller series are available in 3-, 4-, 5-, and 6-bladed monoblock configurations. For high ice classes, bolted blade designs can be offered.

The MAN Alpha high-performance naval propeller range offers excellent coverage of the very specialized and individual propulsive demands – for example for various ship types, ranging from powerful combat frigates to offshore patrol vessels.

MAN Energy Solutions masters a vast number of disciplines in relation to the optimization of aft ship parameters and special installation requirements. The perfected layout and hydrodynamic propeller integration are always ship- and hull-optimized.

The Alphatronic 3000 propulsion control system controls both straightforward CPP and FPP installations and various complex (multi-propeller, DM, DE and hybrid) propulsion application combinations with MAN low-, medium- and high-speed engines.

A vast knowledge and development base has accumulated during our many years, with a focus on the project planning, design, optimization, sales, order processing, supply, commissioning, and after-sales servicing of complete propulsion systems.

A wide variety of leak-proof and environmentally friendly stern tube systems are available with our propellers. We provide stern tube solutions for water lubrication and systems approved for lubrication with biodegradable non-toxic lubricants.
