Converteam has been supplying systems to naval vessels for over 80 years. From the last 25 years, we have over 100 naval references.
Our naval systems are mainly based upon the systems developed for commercial applications but are often ruggedised to meet the special requirements for naval systems. For high performance systems, a range of products have been specifically tailored to the naval environment.
Converteam has proven expertise in the design and supply of electric or hybrid propulsion systems for naval vessels.
We provide systems for all types of naval vessels ranging through:
Our scope of supply includes:
audit and consulting, planning, contracting, design studies, project management, development and engineering, manufacturing and function testing, integrated system test and simulation, customer training, installation, start-up and fine tuning, maintenance and services
