Rim Drive Technology is a manufacturer fully focused on electric propulsion. Moreover, these systems are specifically designed for the maritime sector. Instead of adapting conventional engine technologies, this brand chooses a completely different approach. They focus entirely on the shaftless electric motor. As a result, this technology offers practical solutions for common problems in recreational and commercial boating.
Rim Drive Technology motors so special is the absence of a central shaft. The propeller blades are directly attached to the magnetic outer ring. As a result, the center of the propeller always remains open.
This so-called "hubless" design also offers a huge practical advantage. Because there's no axle, aquatic plants and ropes are washed away much more easily. Furthermore, the drive consists of only one moving part. This minimizes mechanical wear and tear, making the system virtually maintenance-free.
Besides its clever mechanical design, this brand distinguishes itself through advanced control technology. The engines are controlled by extremely intelligent motor controllers, allowing you to fine-tune the engine response to your specific vessel. These electronics also offer the convenient option of remote support, allowing a service technician to easily access engine readouts from a laptop.
The brand offers reliable solutions for a wide range of boat types. Power outputs range from compact 0.5 kW models to robust 75 kW systems. The product range can be broadly divided into three categories:
Outboards: Complete outboard motors with tiller steering or for fixed mounting.
Fixed POD motors: Compact underwater motors that you mount directly and inconspicuously under the hull.
Steerable PODs: Innovative underwater motors that can rotate up to 320 degrees on their axis.
Thanks to the open propeller and saltwater-resistant design, Rim Drive Technology excellently in challenging conditions. Within our range, we offer these motors as a high-quality foundation for your vessel. After all, an optimal and efficient system always depends on your boat. Therefore, we supply the necessary battery packs and cabling exclusively custom-made. Finally, please feel free to contact us for appropriate and honest advice.
