HD Rudder
OPTIMAL MANOEUVRING PERFORMANCE
The HD rudders provide an excellent manoeuvring performance, which is proven in practice and in the most stringent towing-tank trials. These high-efficiency rudders can be used with or without a nozzle. They have an asymmetrical profile and are always applied in a pair. The HD rudders have been especially developed for inland vessels in combination with a 2, 4 or 6 rudder propulsion set-up.
APPLICATION
- Inland vessels that require high manoeuvrability across a range of different sailing conditions (high and low water) and situations (canals, low speed manoeuvring).
ADVANTAGES
In short
- Excellent manoeuvring performance
- Long lifespan
- Eco-friendly design
- Low maintenance

2DWK Steering System
The 2DWK is a reliable asymmetric steering system, specifically engineered for the Van der Velden® HD and Van der Velden® XR rudder systems.
The 2DWK steering system is suitable for every type of vessel, but it is mainly designed for inland vessels.
4DWKK Steering System
The 4DWKK is a reliable asymmetric steering system, specifically engineered for the Van der Velden® HD and Van der Velden® XR rudder systems. The 4DWKK is specifically engineered for twin screw inland vessels with four rudders.
SP2700 Control System
SP2700 is a real-time redundant digital steering installation with a control and alarm system.
HP7000 Control System
HP7000 is a proportional hydraulic installation This steering installation is completely independent of the electrical system.
BOSS ECO
The BOSS™ eco system consists of a touchscreen display with integrated software, which continuously calculates and shows the steering behaviour in relation to the steering movements and rudder angles, aligned to the actual sailing situation.
HYDROSPOILER
The purpose of the Hydro Spoiler is to optimise water flow towards the rudder. A spoiler is placed behind the propeller, exactly on the centreline.
