330-PSA-9-63 (USN 711224): LCU-1620 is craft of the LCU-1600 class fitted with vertical-axis (cycloidal), propellers, equipped with two six-blade, controllable pitch, 500 horsepower propellers. The LCU-1620 is steered by shifting the direction of thrust of both propellers simultaneously. In tests the LCU-1620 stopped completely in three quarters of her length from a full speed of more than 11 knots. She turned a complete circle in still water in less than 10 seconds, fully loaded, she retracted, turned around, and came out over a sandbar bow on. Photograph released January 15, 1963.

The Woolwich Ferry's current three vessels were built in Dundee in 1963 by the Caledon Shipbuilding & Engineering Company to replace paddle steamers, and were each named after prominent local politicians: John Burns, Ernest Bevin and James Newman (Newman was mayor of Woolwich, 1923–25).

 

These ferries feature Voith-Schneider propulsion systems for manoeuvrability. A cycloidal propeller is fitted centrally at either end, and each is driven by a 500bhp 7-cylinder Mirrlees National diesel engine.

Seriously!

According to: www.urinal.net/rh_dedman/,"...R.H. Dedman, (one of) the four newest ferries, employ a "cycloidal propulsion" system. Instead of conventional propellers and rudders, power is obtained from two vertical cycloidal propulsors, one at each end of the boat. This technology allows the ferry to make 360 degree turns or to move sideways with no forward or backward movement. It also allows the Captain to make quicker stops or slow the vessel much more rapidly than conventionally propelled boats. All of the boats are named after former Texas Transportation Commission members except the Gibb Gilchrist. Mr. Gilchrist was the State Highway Engineer twice during his career with the department."

Tan'erliq is an oceangoing tractor tug owned and operated by Crowley Maritime. Specifically designed for high-stakes maritime environments, it is primarily used for ship escort, emergency rescue, and oil spill response.

Power: 10,192 horsepower, generated by two Caterpillar 3612 DITA diesel engines.

Propulsion: Two Voith-Schneider cycloidal drives which allow for 360-degree maneuverability and instant thrust in any direction.

Dimensions: Approximately 153 feet in length and 48 feet in width.

Capabilities: It features 100 tons of bollard pull and is equipped with a hydrofoil-shaped skeg for enhanced stability during high-speed tanker escorts.

For nearly two decades, the Tan'erliq and its sister ship, the Nanuq, were stationed in Valdez, Alaska. They were part of a dedicated fleet protecting Prince William Sound following the 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill.

In 2018, Crowley lost the Alaska escort contract to Edison Chouest. Since then, the Tan'erliq has been relocated to the Pacific Northwest, where it currently operates in Puget Sound and around Port Angeles and Anacortes, Washington.

The working strength of the cantilever crane is light. The crane is composed of a column, a swing arm slewing drive device and an electric hoist. The lower end of the column is fixed on the concrete foundation by anchor bolts. The cycloidal pin wheel deceleration device drives the cantilever to rotate. The electric hoist is used in the cantilever work. The girder is moved in a straight line from left to right, and heavy objects are lifted. The jib of the crane is a hollow steel structure with light weight, large span, large lifting weight, economical and durable. The built-in walking mechanism adopts special engineering plastic walking wheels with rolling bearings, which has low friction and fast walking. The small structure size is especially beneficial to improve the hook stroke.

Galveston - Bolivar Ferries

The ferry operation consists of six boats, each of which can carry approximately 70 vehicles, 500 passengers and six crewmembers. The Gibb Gilchrist is a traditionally powered and steered vessel. The R.C. Lanier, D.C. Greer, Ray Stoker, Jr., Robert H. Dedman and John W. Johnson, the four newest ferries, employ a "cycloidal propulsion" system. Instead of conventional propellers and rudders, power is obtained from two vertical cycloidal propulsors, one at each end of the boat. This technology allows the ferry to make 360 degree turns or to move sideways with no forward or backward movement.
