Civilian Marine
A marine engine or propulsion system generates constant vibration and noise on board a vessel. Hutchinson applies its expertise in vibration control and acoustics, developed for the aerospace, defence and space industries.

Acoustics & Vibration
An inadequately isolated propulsion system transmits most of its vibrations into the vessel structure. Our anti-vibration and acoustic systems isolate these vibrations, improving onboard comfort.
Sensors / Detection & Measurement / Encoders
Moisture and continuous vibration at sea make engine-shaft speed measurement particularly challenging. Our magnetic rings remain reliable under these conditions.
Precision Sealing
A cooling or lubrication circuit continuously exposed to salt-laden moisture will eventually develop leaks without adequate protection. Our O-rings withstand this constant exposure.
Protection, Safety & Structure
Rolling and pitching continuously place loads on onboard equipment. Our levelling systems nevertheless provide reliable support and stability.
