Veth Propulsion was established in Papendrecht in the Netherlands and has been operating as a leader in exceptional (auxiliary) propulsion systems since 1951. The company was acquired in 2019 by the Twin Disc Group of companies.

With a reputation built on quality, Veth Propulsion is the ideal fit to the already extensive marine portfolio offered by MIT. The partnership strengthens the choice of drive solutions available to naval architects, boat builders and operators, extending beyond a conventional driveline array with systems that offer an astonishing 360° of manoeuvrability.

Suitable for a wide range of applications, Veth Propulsion solutions offer flexibility of design resulting in several available configurations. Along with traditional diesel power, the technology provided by Veth Propulsion is also able to be powered by environmentally-friendly fully electric propulsion.

In addition to Azimuth thrusters, Veth Propulsion has an extensive range of shallow draft horizontal bow thrusters which meet the requirements of a demanding marine market. With this unique design, users can expect high thrust even at cruising speeds along with 360° of thrust direction.

The dynamic partnership of MIT and Veth Propulsion elevates bespoke propulsion with every application treated as an individual project, offering different drive options meeting the needs of specific build designs and vessel requirements whether the application calls for diesel-direct, diesel-electric / LNG-electric, hydraulic or a combination.
