DMC: Your partner in maximising vessel performance To sail smoothly and efficiently, each and every vessel needs the most reliable steering equipment. In addition, we are a preferred supplier to Damen’s global network of 35 shipyards. #maritime #maritimeindustry #shipbuilding

Presenting: DMC’s new and improved Optima nozzle! After more than a year of intense research, we can proudly say that the Optima nozzle has gotten even better. As in: you use it, you’ll get more than 3% extra thrust at the same power level. Read more: bit.ly/3swXvMW

What are the advantages of a DMC smart dock winch system and how does it work? We’ll tell you! We recently designed, produced, and installed an innovative winch system for a 405 metres repair yard in the Netherlands.bit.ly/3QksPrw

DMC proudly announces the successful delivery of two NACA profile rudders and a matching Piston-type steering system to the Pink Shadow, a 58 x 11 m SeaXplorer super yacht. Our Piston-type steering gear is plug & play. We guarantee not just reliability but pure quality. #Yachting

DMC performed a thorough check on the Castorone, one of the largest Pipe Laying Vessels in the world and owned by Saipem. Recently she was in dry dock for her 5-years class renewal. During this period DMC checked the rudders and steering gear and made sure they were good to go.

We’re proud to announce that our Service Department has reached a remarkable milestone. Our colleagues have completed their 8,000th vessel inspection! We thank Technical Superintendent of Naviglobe, Eric Suurland for having us inspect the Lynn ever since its construction in 2005.

Would you guess there’s over 12.000 kg of steering gear in this photo? These Rotary Vanes each have a torque of 1100 kNm and weigh around 6,200 kg. Rotary Vanes are known for its compact and heavy-duty design: The most muscle, the least space 💪 #maritime #shipsandshipping

It all started back in 1990, when we opened our wholly-owned production facility in Gdansk. Our Polish colleagues not only manufacture our manoeuvring equipment, such as rudders and nozzles, but also assemble and even spray-paint the equipment, tailored to client specifications.

Four innovative winches, specially developed to manoeuvre very large vessels into a 405 metre-long dock smoothly and safely. A unique project, completely designed and built by DMC. The combined winch system is powerful enough to pull any floating object into the dock. #innovation

Nozzles: Can they actually save fuel? Our customer, Sieberen van Terwisga, can confidently answer that question: “You bet”, he says. ”In some situations, there’s even a difference of up to 30% compared to the time we did not have nozzles installed!" bit.ly/3QoAAwY

She’s ready for her next heavy transport 💪 This Heavy Load Carrier was built in 2013, when she was fitted with our Timon open linkage flap rudder. Recently, she was in dry dock for emergency repairs. Our service team carried out necessary maintenance. Safe journeys!

Did you know that all our systems are produced entirely in house? All our maritime solutions are produced in one of our wholly-owned manufacturing locations in the Netherlands, Poland, and China. They cover our standardised range of products as well as our custom-built systems.

We’ve been producing nozzles for nearly 50 years now. But what exactly is a nozzle and what are its advantages? A ship propeller rotates in the water with its blades. A nozzle reduces losses by restricting water flow to the propeller tips, resulting in increased efficiency.

Workboat Bella equipped with hydraulics in all shapes and sizes⚙️Multicat Bella from Herman Sr. has some impressive features. Did you know that DMC can design and produce the hydraulics for all hydraulic-driven systems on any vessel? #hydraulic #workboat #maritime #multicat

Today we celebrate the Day of the Seafarer, and this year’s theme is #OceansWorthProtecting. We contribute to a more sustainable environment with our range of energy saving devices. One example is our Silent Bulb. This device allows fuel savings up to 1.5%. #DayoftheSeafarer

Whether they are for anchoring, towing or mooring, our winches have got you covered 💪 Hydraulic or electric, standardised or custom-built, our range of winches covers the entire spectrum. We also design and build automatic variable speed winches. #winches #innovation #maritime
