PM motor direct drive azimuth thruster shaft and propeller by L / T / Z drive, the reduction gear is built inside
E-Propulsion system is easier for shipyard installation and maintenance.

Top-mounted PM motor's Azimuth Ducted Propeller
The best choice for full electric or series hybrid propulsion E-ships, for example: Tugboats.
The Azimuth Ducted Propeller has high bullard pulling force, smaller turning radius, and a short braking distance; it can also fully utilize the high starting torque of the motor to greatly increase towing power.

Top-mounted PM motor's azimuth contra-rotating propeller
For inland transport full electric ships, or serial hybrid E-Barges, due to the use of azimuth contra-rotating propellers, the maximum diameter of the dual propellers is smaller than the diameter of a single propeller, less cavitation and energy recovery.
Contra-rotating propellers are very suitable for shallow waters, with a small turning radius, short braking distance, and eliminating the need for bow thrusters, gearboxes, rudder and steering gears.

Contra-rotating propellers are very suitable for shallow waters, with a small turning radius, short braking distance, and eliminating the need for bow thrusters, gearboxes, rudder and steering gears.
If the ship beam is greater than 15 meters, three azimuth contra-rotating propellers can be installed, with the middle propeller not needing azimuth capability.
