Dennis 25 years working at Schraven BV

Over 25 years ago you came (as a rookie) for an internship and in the meantime you have become an indispensable part of the machining industry! You have worked with many machines and each time you know how to make them your own so that they can produce the most difficult articles ever more efficiently. Dennis, we appreciate your dedication, eagerness to learn and positivity enormously and we hope to develop many beautiful things with you for many years to come.

Shaft seals

During this job, we replaced all the propeller shaft seals. The propeller shaft seal ensures that it keeps the oil in and the water out. This ensures a good lubricating effect of bearings and gears. It concerned two times Schottel Z-drivea and two times Schottel L-Drive bow thrusters. The ship has been stationary for a while and will be put back into service from a long time.

Rolls Royce Thrusters

Wij hebben weer een mooie opdracht afgerond aan boord. Dit keer ging het om de schroefas keerringen van de Rolls Royce 2x AQM 901CRP thrusters. Van Ballegooy Scheepsschroeven heeft de schroeven gerepareerd en alles werkt weer naar behoren.

Before and after

See here the result after our inspection work on the 4 thrusters Schottels SCD STP 200. Among other things we checked the propeller shafts for cracks and the oil was changed for the five-yearly inspection. This time Damen Shiprepair Oranjewerf balanced the propellers and the river cruise vessel is ready to sail again.

Rolls Royce AQM901CRP Bow thruster

We repaired another Rolls Royce AQM901CRP Bow thruster . We always test if everything works properly in our workshop at the hydraulics department, so that we are not faced with surprises on board. After testing carefully, everything was transported to the ship. On location we have mounted the parts in the ship and a sea trial has been made . Everything works as it supposed to work and Uniworld Boutique River Cruises can sail safely again.
