- Find out how the Azipod® propulsion units are assembled, and follow their journey from factory to installation.
WHAT IS AZIPOD® PROPULSION?
Azipod® propulsion is a gearless steerable propulsion system where the electric drive motor is housed within a pod outside the ship hull. Azipod® units can rotate 360 degrees, increasing maneuverability and operating efficiency of vessel, while cutting fuel consumption by up to 20 percent compared to conventional shaftline systems. From its creation three decades ago to its market leading position in global shipping today, Azipod® propulsion has revolutionized marine transport with its unparalleled performance, efficiency, sustainability and reliability.

Linda in control room! Nice to see you!
My Father works in abb and thanks to my father and abb i now love Engineering and robotics
Any vacancies are there in ABB
Such a master piece of engineering
Que bueno ver éste tipo de montaje me recuerda cuándo trabajábamos en la industria naval,un buque de la Esso tubo problemas con la máquina de timón.ABB la construyo y al año
Se montó fue un buen trabajo.saludos .
Y todavía estás trabajando en el ámbito naval?
Invention of the best ship building folk - from Finland with love!
Marvellous piece of engineering. Considering that this is a multi pole motor , the rotor magnetic field does not need to go through diametrically and so the rotor is hollowed out to save on weight. I have never seen this type of rotor construction but its logic is indeed very good. Seeing the large number of winding on the stator I think I should hesitate to think about the control system as these days with power electronics those coils could switched on and off with any combination to produce different rotation and directions. Would not mind spending a few days of my old life becoming acquainted with these modern propulsion system and their electronic control. So many ingenious people around these days, they are the new gods of our society and just like the old gods, they too are also so invisible to society who enjoys their comforts due to the products of these unseen and silent gods working in the background of society. Congratulations to all those who make comforts to be enjoyed in our life and not after we die.
it is common to use synchronous motors with a lot of poles
the biggest reason for a high pole number is the speed
if you want to have a slow motor, but the voltage hast a frequency of 50 or 60 Hz, then you need a lot of poles
MrZauberwuerfel, you'r wrong, rotation speed is a frequency, divided by pole pairs number. A lot of poles means a less speed.
Carmel Pule' is right, this solution allows to save a weight of rotor and stator too, at the expense of increase operating frequency.
@@taras900956 you read his comment wrong, he says that if you want a slower motor, you have to add more poles.
This is a slow speed application, and so they need more poles to match the speed to the frequency.
great maneuverability at the masters fingertips.This ship can truly turn on a dime .
Unbelievable human creativity. WOW.
Beatiful
Amazing piece of engineering. In future, all ships will operate azimuth pods rather than old fashioned rudders and propeller shafts.
whats wrong with "old fashioned" ?
@@thepreserver83 Nothing. IIRC is it more efficient than anything else and it's the simplest, thus the most reliable and cheapest to run.
what a nice assembly good video.
I Will use on My vessel
Pretty damn cool. Would have loved to see more detail.👍👍👍👍👍👍
Stellar!! Amazing tech.
they are incredibly complex. I think they should go back to the older system of direct drive propellers on shafts and have thrusters to enable the side to side motion in dock areas...
Great engineering!
Those must have mad torque to be driven right off the motor shaft without a gearbox.
AZIMUTE ZF , THE NUMBER ONE !🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Amazing lovely ship
Hey. Can I use this video for my compilation about manufacturing processes? I'll give you full credits in the description!
Great video. Thanks for putting this together.
JE SUIS VRAIMENT COMPTANT DE VOIRE CE QUE VOUS EST ENTRAIN DE FAIRE FANTASQUE ÉLECTRICIEN
was hoping it shows us when it operates..
I LOVE ENGINEERING
Amazing job
Teşekkürler ABB
Oddly, I think the bearing through the hull is more interesting. The force put on that bearing is a strange one. Not thrust or axial because the force is tangential. The seals must be interesting in design.
PointyTailofSatan That's a ring gear with rotaty driven by hydraulic motor(s), similar on a crane pedestal
@@tmtan1303 Yes, but it has to be water tight, and the forces on the bearing are odd. It's hard to explain.
@PointyTailofSatan that should be a separated complex seal system for water tight..
I wonder if this is the bearing that has been the cause of many failures with this system?
I was wondering the same. And is it Carnival's bad luck with their Vista-class's issues or is it some sort of operational difference between Carnival and other cruise lines?
Thanks
It is usabe to see before practice.
How is the stator shrunk in place?
AWESOME!
Tolles Video und echt spannend wie eine Schiffsschraube hergestellt wird. Wenn ich sehe wie langsam sich die einzelnen Teile im Video bewegen und man weiß, dass dies ein Zeitraffervideo ist, will ich gar nicht wissen wie langsam dies in Wirklichkeit ist. Interessant fand ich auch, wie der Motor zusammen gesetzt wurde. Wie gesagt tolles Video und einen Like bekommt ihr dafür auf jeden Fall. :)
That is one big submersible electric motor. Yet the biggest cargo carriers still use the old shat and rudder.
Cool!!!
Супер-БРАВО !
who is only can make this wwww Amazing love Engineering robotics
VERY GOOD
Amazing. Thanks.
Vídeo muy bueno seguir así enorabuena
Осталось увидеть частотный преобразователь под такую машину
Amazing
I love ❤️ ABB!
Some information on the unit would be appreciated
Thank you for the interest in Azipod(R) electric propulsion. You can find more info here: new.abb.com/marine/systems-and-solutions/azipod
Are there various sizes to fit correctly down to a 141' yacht?
Вот технологии!
Wonderful sight - it could be my Black & Decker drill, but on a slightly larger scale! What a pity we don't build ships in Britain any more. Shame on successive governments for letting a great industry die.
Hank0. B
Hgh
You do - you build two of the largest aircraft carriers in the world???
its just like a cordless drill ,,, only way bigger.
bet the price tag is bigger too.
Молодцы!!!
Bravo !
I was inside one today
Superbe !
How much cost? And it will last for how many years?
Donde puedo dejar mi currículo
Keren mas..
Ditunggu amanah baliknya
Elektric Propeller ?
Surreal
Is this an electric motor ? How does it work inside the ship ?
Inside the ship are reciprocating engines driving generators, absence of long shafts saves weight and space and azimuth thrusters have better manoeuvrability
@@CombraStudios wow thanks 🙂
You're welcome! Love to help :) check out "cruise ship engine room" or similar keywords to see them, sometimes they're seen in the construction timelapse videos
Are the rotors of the permanent magnet or excited coil types?
The rotor looked like it had windings.
I was wondering the same thing. Neodymium magnets that big would be too dangerous.
@@Chris-vx5kp -- I have no specific comment. But there are folks out in "youtube land" that take apart electrical vehicles. The permanent magnet rotor is quite common. It doesn't use BIG permanent magnets but rather takes modest size magnets into slots in the rotor laminations. Obviously, care has to be taken when assembling such a beast.
@@GilmerJohn I think it's a "Slip ring Induction Motor" That would make the most sense considering the red ring at the end, and the application. All the coils are enclose in that red/maroon casing to prevent salt water corrosion in case any gets into the main housing.
So in the case of Carnival Vista, can these units be repaired in dry dock or do they just replace them.
They are designed to have replaceable parts. I'm currently taking Marine/Maritime Classes and I know a lot about the Azipods. The bearings are bad on the Azipods which is not allowing the vessel to make full speed. The repairs to the vessel to Carnival Vista will cost Carnival around $20M-$30M USD to get her back in service in time on July 27th so she can resume her 7-day Eastern & Western Caribbean sailings from Galveston TX as planned without any further issues to the Azipods or her 8 Diesel Generators. These are a magnificent piece of Maritime equipment but they have issues with destroying the bearings within a few years. If you compare Royal Caribbean's Oasis Class to Carnival's Vista-class it's actually very rare and it was very surprising the bearings went bad in both Azipods at the same time on Carnival Vista. The Oasis Ships have a very bad habit of destroying the bearings in the Azipods. Allure Of The Seas went into Dry Dock last year to have the bearings replaced in the Starboard Azipod and exactly just about one year later Allure Of The Seas is down one Azipod. Royal Caribbean is not taking any more chances bringing an Oasis Ship to Freeport right now so they are waiting until Allure Of The Seas commences her Transatlantic Crossing to Europe next year to repair the bearings in all 3 Azipods when she goes in for her scheduled Dry Dock.
Hopefully, I have answered your question to the best of my ability. Can't wait to welcome you on board our ships in the future.
@@FireAlarmHowTooGuy Thanks for the information, I had thought they could go for years without need to replace the bearings. But anything running 24/7 is bound to be hard on equipment. Thanks
@@illtempered6876 Welcome
good
How many MW and max RPM?
2:28 That looks like an air glide trolly using high pressure air.
How is the motor powered if the pod can rotate 360 degrees? Slip rings?
I think its not 360°...
Powercables are long enough to make one 360 degree rotation something like in a windturbine
The Azipod is designed to rotate a full 360 Degrees. They are controlled from the bridge.
Looks expensive!! Cool
good ,deyuan marine
แต่ละอย่างน่ะ
wow !!!
Hydro turbo propulsion
Cost$
So it's basically a big ass electric drill motor with a propeller on the end
yes, a drill that swivels 180 deg horizontally ;)
Best
👏👏👏
Electric cargoship?
No, it 's a cruiseship being build at this time at Meyer Werft Papenburg, Germany
I suspect these are just electric maneuvering thrusters while the main drive propeller is engine driven.
@@Andy-df5fj Well you suspected wrong.
@@chris746568462
Please elaborate.
@@Andy-df5fj They are the main propulsion for the ship. The entire engine capacity of the ship is used to generate electricity.
They were developed for ice breakers and now used on all kinds of ships/oil rigs ect...
Some of the biggest are 20Mega Watts.
I'm a partner of ABB
Because i have 25k equity shares from 28 years 😊
How many kW?
Starting from 5 MW up to 30 MW.
Looks more expensive than my Evenrude.

Wait, it's a direct drive? :0
Yeap, no gear box or reduction.
And no gearbox oil to slowly leak into the seven seas!
Bandicoot803 And no frictional losses.
This is nothing against healthcare, belive me I am management consultancy I know everything!
Can you send my CV Im enginner in control electrical machines
ABB will nobe ABB now
