Marine
International trade depends on tug boats to dock container ships in port. These powerful work boats require diesel engines operating under heavy loads for extensive amounts of time. To extend engine life and minimize downtime, viscous damper replacement is part of the preventative maintenance schedule implemented by boat owners and fleet managers. Vibratech TVD partners with marine service providers to supply replacement viscous damper for popular Caterpillar, Cummins, and Detroit Diesel marine engines.
We also develop dampers for high performance, low airflow pleasure craft and race boats.
