Best-in-class electric drives
MacGregor's electric-driven deck machinery provides a comprehensive solution for the machinery's entire lifecycle.
Its long-term development, coupled with a broad support network, ensures maximal uptime of the winches. This remains true even if an unlikely event requiring maintenance occurs.
Generally, our drives, like all electric drives, offer high reliability, require less maintenance, and reduce expenses.
Electric solution for the operational decarbonisation
In addition to enhanced operating performance and reduced costs, the electric solution future-proofs your ship to adapt to the constantly changing landscape of environmental restrictions:
- Eliminates the risk of oil spills
- Reduces energy consumption
- Lowers resource demand for operation and maintenance
This approach ensures the sustainable operation of the machinery in the future. We embrace environmental, social and governance practices and we are investing in research and development to provide decarbonisation solutions for our customers.
Shipyards and shipowners both benefit
Electric-driven deck machinery offers benefits to both shipyards and shipowners during installation and operation:
- Reduced installation costs due to easier procedures and fewer necessary parts (such as piping)
- Decreased maintenance needs and associated expenses
- Lower energy consumption during operation
- Increased efficiency
Electric-driven options offer a high return on investment in the long term, which make them an attractive alternative.
