Bridge integrator JRC/Alphatron Marine officially announced to the public its new ProLine package at SMM 2018.

The ProLine package consists of a full range of mandatory or non-mandatory equipment, including the re-introduced JRC JMA-5200/5300 ProLine radar series

ProLine is a total package with professional equipment applicable for various sized IMO and non-IMO intercoastal, workboats, tugboats and fishing vessels ranging from <500GT up to 10.000GT.

The ProLine package consists of a full range of mandatory or non-mandatory equipment, including the re-introduced JRC JMA-5200/5300 ProLine radar series. This reliable and upgraded radar system is available from a non-SOLAS 2 feet radome scanner with a 21-inch display up to a MED type approved radar with 19-inch display with various selectable scanner units. From searchlight to GPS, gyro to autopilot, echo sounder to searchlight sonar and even a newly designed command chair, the comprehensive ProLine includes the most suitable products available to fit a wide range size and type of vessels.

The ProLine package will be available via the JRC/Alphatron Marine subsidiaries in Belgium, Curacao, France, Germany, Korea, Malaysia, The Netherlands, Poland, Singapore, Spain and the USA. Shipyards with their own or subcontracted co-maker with trained electrical staff in these countries may also be interested to apply as reseller/partner. It is foreseen that also JRC distributors worldwide will join in due course.

The ProLine package will be sold with a 3-year limited warranty on parts. Essentially all equipment will be delivered ex-factory and can be integrated where needed. With direct support from the manufacturers, JRC/Alphatron Marine now claims to be closer to the customer on a whole new level. The installation diagrams will be available online and training for resellers will be at one of Alphatron’s training facilities as well as by video training.

Additionally, at SMM, Alphatron was also demonstrating how its (usually 3mm aluminium) console sections are now available in smaller, flatter modular pieces so that delivery costs to boatbuilders can be reduced, and some of the fabrication cost can be moved to the shipyard location where labour rates may be lower.
