High torque direct drive electric motors for high-speed vessels onboard the vessel “Brisen”

The high torque direct drive electric motors from Brim Tech represents a silent revolution at sea. Through a collaboration with Phase Motion Control, Brim Tech has developed electric motors that enables high-speed vessels to circumvent the gearbox, connecting the electric motors directly to the driveline and propellers on high speed vessels, solving a critical bottleneck in the propulsion efficiency of propulsion at sea.

By utilising high torque electric motors at without a gear the efficiency can be further enhanced by applying large propellers at a very low RPM, increasing the overall propulsion efficiency of the driveline, reducing the total energy consumption of the vessel, as well as the weight and cost of the system.
