Vulkan Italia at Metstrade in the Next Gen Zone
Vulkan Italia at Metstrade in the Next Gen Zone
Metstrade, the world’s leading B2B event for the marine equipment industry, opens shortly at the RAI in Amsterdam and runs from 17 to 19 November.
The Next Gen Zone in Hall 13 is set to be one of the show’s most interesting areas. There, a group of innovative companies will present ready-to-use solutions for reducing the marine industry’s environmental impact. This part of the show belongs to the Next Generation Propulsion Showcase, organised with IEMA, the International Electric Maritime Association.
Exhibitors will show a range of propulsion systems and marine technologies. Among them is Vulkan Italia. Matteo Zangrandi, Head of Hybrid and Electric Solutions, told Pressmare what the brand will bring to the Netherlands.
“With the H Series, we have combined the engineering expertise of the Vulkan Group and Vulkan Italia with the experience the Vulkan Hybrid & Electric Solutions team has built up in hybrid and electric propulsion projects. The result is a modular, integrated platform that can meet the needs of different applications, from yachting to commercial marine.”
Zangrandi described the technology in detail: “At the heart of the platform are the H Series hybrid modules. They are designed to adapt to different propulsion configurations and are integrated into a complete solution that includes power electronics, distribution, control and automation. The H1000, the latest addition to the range, is a 200 kW parallel hybrid module designed to integrate with most diesel engines on the market today in the 500 to 1,500 kW range. Thanks to the patented CapCoolTech® technology from dynamic E flow GmbH (DEF), which is based on direct conductor cooling, the H1000 achieves high power density while combining performance, low weight and compact dimensions. This combination makes it easier to integrate in both new builds and retrofits, even where engine-room space is particularly tight.”
Vulkan Italia will exhibit at Metstrade on stand 07.204.
