more efficient than conventional flat plate rudders

Flow-aligned rudders. VEEM’s twisted, flow-aligned rudders are designed to work in harmony with the propeller and shaft line to minimise turbulence and maximise lift. Using advanced profiles inspired by high-performance hydrodynamic geometry, these rudders significantly reduce drag while enhancing course stability, handling, and responsiveness.

Precision-engineered shafts. VEEM manufactures complete shaft line solutions (splined or tapered) engineered for higher strength, reduced stress, and improved hydrodynamic performance. Our latest generation shaft geometry allows for smaller diameters, reducing drag and improving flow into the propeller.

V and P Brackets. VEEM V and P brackets are designed as hydrodynamic components – not just structural supports. Their flow-aligned form reduces resistance, improves water delivery to the propeller, and complements the reduced shaft diameters achievable with VEEM’s latest designs.

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.
