Lateral thrust when in action on an R600
can be enormous. For this reason the unit
uses a thrust plate system.
This system is essentially comprised of
two parts.
1 The reinforced hull plates to be
manufactured by the shipyard and
2 The adjustable thrust pads are
supplied by max power, but will need
adjustment to suit the thrust pads.
The thrust pads must be at exactly 90° to
the hull flange and strong enough to
support at least a one-tone load.
The thruster is first installed with the thrust
pads removed.
The distance between the plate and the
pad seat is then measured; lastly the pads
are machined to fit and reinstalled.
