ABB drives and engines for electric deck machinery and marine winches
Your onboard machinery must operate reliably, meeting the tightest deadlines, ensuring smooth, uninterrupted operation. That's why ABB has developed marine-certified variable frequency drives (VFDs) with a dedicated winch control program. This program, combined with our Direct Torque Control (DTC) system, provides the added benefit of eliminating the need for motor encoders or strain gauges, reducing parts count and reducing maintenance.
In close collaboration with winch manufacturers, we have leveraged our extensive experience in developing drives for various types of marine and offshore winches. You can use the control program as is or customize it to meet your needs. Combine our drives with low-voltage marine engines for comprehensive service, supported by a global service and support network.
