Duncan Propellers Limited

Design and Pattern-Making

World class custom design with unbeatable delivery lead times

Selection Design

The company uses propeller and stern-gear selection design programs that have been specially developed over a number of years and with the past experience of designing the installations of a great many high performance boats. These include naval vessels, super yachts, fast patrol boats, lifeboats, coast-guard vessels, high performance sports boats and many more.

Propeller Design

After a period of development, Duncan Propellers has recently introduced a new style of high performance propeller.

The new form of custom designed propeller uses blade geometry, which produces optimum flow, for smooth and efficient thrust. The new design has outperformed its rivals during trials with several different high-speed vessels.

Pattern-making

The company has developed a specialist, and market leading, computer controlled pattern-making process. This process offers two main features over conventional methods. It enables the company to offer a very large number of very accurate standard and custom designed propellers to conform up to ISO “S” class. In addition, the process is very fast and so it reduces the lead-time and the cost of new propellers.

This gives Duncan Propellers a distinct advantage over other propeller manufacturers.
