Alphatron at Europort

Alphatron Marine will be showcasing three new state of the art bridge solutions, driven by the concept of advanced navigation technology, at this year’s Europort exhibition.

The unique fully integrated Alphatron Marine one man bridge is for use in semi-military and or coastal patrol vessels

The first solution is a unique, fully integrated Alphatron Marine one man bridge with a total of three 46-inch displays for use in semi-military and or coastal patrol vessels, combining radar, WECDIS, conning, alarm monitoring and DP data in an easy to use format.

As a full merchant JRC variant, the second innovative and integrated bridge concept is a derivative of the one men bridge targeted at larger vessels. Five 46-inch displays with a centre console allows for easy access to manoeuvring controls and all other essential operating functions.

The third is a tugboat variant, the result of a design study together with some of the biggest tugboat operators in the world. This modular tugboat variant ensures all round visibility and ship control without compromise.

At the exhibition, the company will also launch its new digital chart table concept. This all new digital chart table consists of a phenomenal 46-inch touch display, where routes can be planned on a more realistic “paper chart” scale.

In addition to the digital chart powered by Navtor, the console incorporates the necessary GMDSS communication equipment, while at the same time leaving room for the paper chart for back up purposes.

As well as the new products, Alphatron will also have on show its large range of satellite and antenna solutions, multi-function display units and paperless course recorders.

Visit Alphatron at Europort Maritime, from 3 to 6 November 2015 at Ahoy Rotterdam, The Netherlands, in hall 3, stand number 3405.
