Short-stroke engine for smaller vessels

摘要

Engine designer Winterthur Gas & Diesel Ltd (WinGD) has launched four short-stroke engines to address economic engine speeds and accommodate space constraints on several vessel types. The new range, starting with the X52-S2.0 and X62-S2.0 and their dual-fuel counterparts X52DF-S1.0 and X62DF-S1.0, feature a short piston stroke that is ideal for vessels with a shallow draught, small propeller diameter, or low main deck height.
