Type 2 Long Linear Drive - 12V
The Type 2 long linear drive is designed for mechanically steered vessels with a weight capacity of up to 44,000lb (20,000kg). This drive is specifically crafted for boats that already have a mechanical steering system, ensuring powerful thrust, quick hardover times, and quiet operation.
The Raymarine Type 2 Long Linear Drive (part number M81132) is a 12V linear motion system designed for mechanically steered vessels up to 44,000lb (20,000kg). This drive integrates with existing mechanical steering systems to provide autopilot functionality. It delivers powerful thrust and quick hardover times, which is beneficial for maintaining course in varying sea conditions. The unit is engineered for quiet operation and features minimized backdrive force, reducing interference with manual steering when the autopilot is disengaged. Its robust electric motor, electromagnetic fail-safe clutch, and high tensile belt drive with an epicyclic gearbox contribute to reliable performance. The design also focuses on optimized performance with minimal current consumption, making it suitable for marine environments where power efficiency is a consideration.
This linear drive is designed for mechanically steered vessels with a weight capacity of up to 44,000lb (20,000kg). It is specifically crafted for boats that already have a mechanical steering system.
The drive system utilizes a robust electric motor with an electromagnetic fail-safe clutch. It also incorporates a high tensile belt drive paired with an epicyclic gearbox for efficient power transmission.
The design features minimized backdrive force, which reduces the impact on steering when the autopilot is inactive. This ensures manual steering remains largely unaffected.
The Raymarine Type 2 Long Linear Drive operates on a 12V power supply.
