Propeller technology is being pushed to even higher levels. Ten years ago the
introduction of Prop Scan electronic measuring reduced the mysteries surrounding
propellers and introduced a new way of ‘looking at’ propeller shapes. This
technology allowed ‘standard’ propellers to be improved in performance and
economy with no vibration.
Propeller Dynamics, the developers of Prop Scan, have released their new Prop
Tracker range of products. Prop Tracker has simplified even further the task of
finding out ‘what is wrong with the propeller’ or ‘how bad is the damage’ and
made the job of repairing and tailoring a propeller to a specific boats
requirements a task within the capabilities of the average person.
The sophistication of electronic measuring designed for Navy propellers has been
cleverly redesigned to process the data and present detailed but simple
graphical reports which ‘point’ you in the right direction making propeller
measuring, repair and modification a basic task.
