The Schottel drive unit, developed by the Schottel company, is a typical power unit installed on many types of working vessel such as tugs, ferries and buoy layers. The power of the drive motor is transmitted to the propeller, which is able to swivel. This arrangement alters the angle of thrust of the power unit directly, i.e. the flow is not deflected by a rudder, and this makes the Schottel drive unit a highly efficient design. The CEMSchottel drive unit emulates the functions and construction of the full-size system: the swivel range is 2 x 90º (180º) if a 2 x 45º servo is used.
