Thruster
Platforms
Three thruster platforms are available, from a configurable high-power flagship to standardised bidirectional and observation/light work-class units.
SSAEPL X1080 Underwater Thruster
Engineered to deliver powerful thrust, precise control, and exceptional reliability. Thrust, voltage, power rating, operating depth, and communication interface can be configured according to the selected X1080 model and project requirements.
Bidirectional Thruster
Balanced bidirectional thrust with FOC vector dual closed-loop control for smooth start-stop performance and strong anti-interference capability. Direct-drive structure reduces vulnerable parts, lowering maintenance costs. Suitable for medium-sized ROVs and ship-cleaning robots.
Observation & Light Work-Class Thruster
MMT's thruster product line offers a comprehensive selection of brushless DC thrusters, successfully integrated into observation and light work-class ROVs. Continued operation in the event of shaft seal failure; direct drive reliability with no gearbox; RS485 serial control as standard.
