Smart-Ship marine control lever
Home·Marine controls

Feeling in control.

Intuitive controls for throttle, bow thrusters, azimuth thrusters, tillers, HMIs and integrated control panels — specified for the vessel and application.

Connecting human and machine

Direct feedback. Better decisions.

Smart-Ship controls return information to the operator. Adjustable forces, distinct detents and visual LED feedback make operation more precise, calmer and more efficient.

What we deliver

What we deliver

Throttle controls
01

Throttle controls

Precise single and twin levers for main-engine and propulsion-system control.

Bow thruster controls
02

Bow thruster controls

Intuitive proportional control for electric and hydraulic bow thrusters.

Azimuth controls
03

Azimuth controls

Combined steering and power control for azimuth thrusters and steerable propulsion units.

Tiller controls
04

Tiller controls

Compact, ergonomic steering controls with a project-specific feedback profile.

HMIs
05

HMIs

Clear interfaces for status, settings, alarms and the selection of operating modes.

Integrated panels
06

Integrated panels

Complete control panels combining controls, HMIs, indication and switching functions.

Force feedback

Making information tangible at the right moment.

01

More efficient operation

Tactile zones help the operator remain within an efficient power range.

02

Less component load

Feedback clarifies limits and helps prevent unnecessary load and wear.

03

Better situational awareness

Forces, detents and lighting communicate system status without extra screen actions.

04

Configurable behaviour

Feedback and functionality can differ by sailing mode, control position or application.

From question to operation

From question to operation

01

Use case

We determine functions, users, control positions and desired feedback.

02

Configuration

Mechanics, electronics, lighting and force profiles are aligned.

03

Integration

The controls connect with Smart-Ship or an existing control system.

04

Validation

User experience and system behaviour are tested and fine-tuned.
