When it comes to steering gears for ocean-going vessels, the true mechanical engineer is just around the corner. Fuel economy, speed and manoeuvrability compete for priority.

De Waal has the knowledge, skill and power to integrate all these aspects in the best possible way. Take, for example, the various demountable constructions that allow the rudder blade and rudder stock to be separated. Heavy sea battering puts enormous forces on the connection.Yet the structure is ‘as solid as a rock’ and remains easy to dismantle. A touch of innovation that we owe to our love of shipbuilding.

Head reeling

Shipbuilding makes heads turn and shifts thoughts, leading to thoughtful solutions to all common difficulties. Coasters, large dredgers and all other vessels at sea benefit from our far-reaching innovation. In case of any problems, our engineers are there for you. Anywhere in the world.
