Next Level Shaft Line Solutions with Wärtsilä's Paul Nailor

As the shipping industry scrutinises every aspect of onboard operations to improve operational efficiency and environmental performance, Paul Nailor of Wärtsilä Shaft Line Solutions discusses the company’s shaft line innovations.
From doubling the overhaul period of its Airguard Seal to a complete rethink of the stern tube set up, Paul outlines the industry challenges that led to the development of Wärtsilä's Next Level Shaft Line Solutions, as well as each technology's operational benefits.
As the industry trend moves from oil to water lubrication, Paul speaks on the flexibility of Wärtsilä's EvoTube - which allows the ability to convert from oil to water lubrication - as well as its space saving benefits and advanced yet simplified design.
The conversation explores the significance of maintenance and component life cycles, highlighting how Wärtsilä Shaft Line Solutions was able to extend the service interval of its 10-year Airguard Seal, the the inherent longevity of its IntelliSafe bearing, and the actionable insights offered by its Shaft Line Monitoring Equipment.
Sustainability credentials and customer feedback are discussed for each of the technologies, with future episodes set to focus on the technical details of the Next Level Shaft Line Solutions, and experiences of the products out in the field.
