Remote vessel maneuvering

Explore the project

Maneuvering a vessel in critical situations, such as docking or navigating in tight quarters, demands exceptional precision, expert steering skills, and the support of advanced tools. Althen Sensors & Controls’ custom remote controller provides a robust solution tailored for these maritime challenges.

Compact and lightweight design for easy handling

Designed specifically for controlling vessel thrusters and deck equipment, this innovative tailor-made controller ensures smooth and accurate operations even in high-pressure environments. Its compact and lightweight design enhances ease of use, reducing operator fatigue during prolonged handling.

Rugged aluminum housing with IP67 protection

The controller’s housing is constructed from durable aluminum and rated IP67 for waterproof and dustproof protection, ensuring reliable performance in harsh maritime conditions. It is built to withstand the demanding environmental factors of the marine industry, such as saltwater exposure, vibrations, and extreme temperatures.

Redundant output options

In addition to its rugged construction, the joystick controller is equipped with redundant output options to enhance operational safety. This redundancy ensures that the controller maintains functionality even in the unlikely event of a component failure, providing peace of mind during critical maneuvers.

Ultimate joystick for marine applications

With precision-engineered controls and exceptional reliability, this remote controller is an indispensable tool for ship operators, contributing to safer and more efficient vessel handling. Whether docking, navigating confined spaces, or managing deck equipment, a custom remote controller is the optimal choice for this type of maritime applications.
