Global Azimuth and Tunnel Thrusters Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025

Global Azimuth and Tunnel Thrusters Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025



Research Summary

Azimuth thrusters are powerful propulsion units that can move in any direction, providing full control of the vessel's movement. They are often used in ships, boats, and other marine vessels, allowing them to maneuver in tight spaces without the need for a tugboat. Tunnel thrusters are also propulsion units that are used to provide additional maneuverability to marine vessels. They are often mounted at the bow or stern of the vessel and can rotate to thrust water in any direction. This helps to improve the vessel's ability to turn and maneuver in tight spaces, such as harbours and ports.
