European luxury cruise ship steering gear system transformation

Replace the full electronic control steering system for three 100,000-ton cruise ships of an Italian cruise company, requiring compatibility with existing hydraulic equipment and shortening the shutdown transformation time.

Solution: Install dual redundant electro-hydraulic steering gear (SteerMaster 8000), achieve 0.8 second rudder angle response through optical fiber ring network, retain the original hydraulic pump station and connect to the proportional valve group, use modular design to shorten the transformation period to 48 hours, and simultaneously develop a VR simulation training system, covering 18 scenarios and achieving 100% practical assessment pass rate.
