AEGIR-Marine to Unveil Propulsion Controls System at SMM

Dutch-based AEGIR-Marine said it will roll out its own branded propulsion controls system at this year’s SMM trade fair in Hamburg.

The new system, called Prime Controls, allows AEGIR-Marine to provide its customers with a full controls system retrofit and assures that spare parts are available at least 15 years after delivery, the company said.

“At AEGIR-Marine we witness a growth in the retrofit market for propulsion controls and automation,” said Justin van Hoeve, Control Specialist at AEGIR-Marine. “Therefore, we entered in a strategic partnership with a well-known German company with over 60 years of experience when it comes to electrical and automation within the maritime industry. We can now offer our clients a full retrofit, from beginning to end. When it comes to azimuthal, CPP or tunnel thruster upgrades AEGIR-Marine has a solution that will fit every client’s need and budget.”
