Skewed Nozzle Applications

Designed for trawlers, tugs, and long-liners requiring efficient thrust and reliable performance under heavy load.

Designed for trawlers, tugs, and long-liners operating in demanding conditions, the VEEM Skewplan propeller is engineered to deliver high efficiency, strong bollard pull, and reliable thrust across a wide operating range. Its blade foil sections are optimised for modern trawling and bollard pull applications, delivering effective load distribution and reduced cavitation under sustained heavy operation. A variable pitch distribution unique to the VEEM Skewplan is precisely matched to the inflow angle at each position within the nozzle to maximise thrust efficiency.

Manufacturing - light years ahead

Bespoke Design

Every VEEM propeller is engineered to match the exact needs of each vessel. Our customised designs draw on decades of practical insight, advanced CFD and FEA capability, and a dedicated team of highly skilled marine propulsion specialists with real-world experience.

Absolutely Identical

Our manufacturing technology ensures propellers are cast and machined to micrometre accuracy, enabling identical replacements and perfectly matched left–right sets with no performance drift across vessel series.

Fully CNC Machined

VEEM propellers are 100% 5-axis CNC-machined to hair-thickness accuracy over every surface, from boss to blade tip, unlike semi-CNC alternatives. This guarantees perfect form, stability, and repeatable high-performance hydrodynamics. Learn more about VEEM vs Class 1 & S-Class >

In-House Alloying

VEEM is one of the very few propeller manufacturers that alloys all metals in-house. This ensures total control over material chemistry, consistent quality, and optimal strength to resist cavitation, corrosion, and fatigue.

Decades of Data

Every propeller benefits from VEEM’s decades of sea-trial data, hydrodynamic research, CFD/FEA validation, and continuous refinement—delivering industry-leading efficiency, smoothness, and thrust performance.
