Automated Sail System

As a globally recognized patented three-element rigid sail system, Automated Sail System incorporates both steel and composite materials in its design. Utilizing automated adjustments of sail angle and camber that respond to real-time signals, this system achieves over 2.5 times the lift compared to conventional single-wing sails, thus maximizing aerodynamic efficiency. Having received AlP certification along with design type approval from prominent classification societies such as DNV and BV, the product has demonstrated its fuel-saving capabilities through DNV-verified operational performance in real-world vessel scenarios.

Engineered for versatile use, the product provides multiple operational modes capable of managing various sailing conditions including navigation, berthing, and severe weather situations. When installed on bulk carriers, the system is strategically positioned across decks between cargo holds, accommodating hatch cover operations and cargo handling equipment. Its innovative design facilitates rotation into a laydown position, ensuring safe clearance from hatch covers and machinery.

Bulk carriers outfitted with Automated Sail System have exhibited consistent performance after more than a year of operation, successfully making calls at over 20 major ports worldwide without any incidents.
