Two of the orders are for LNG tankers ordered by Anthony Veder and the other is a special transport vessel Rotravente RoRo for Siemens windfarm construction.
Also on display will be AlphaLine Repeaters, a full lineup of instruments that are easy to operate via an intuitive colour touchscreen display.
The new 6.5-inch autopilot with rotating button and touch display will be on display for the first time, it utilises advanced track steering technology for safe and efficient operation. AlphaSSRS, a new sound system reception system designed to receive and detect foghorn signals from other vessels, will also be exhibited for the first time.
As well as this, Alphatron’s tugboat bridge which comprises of two ergonomic and dynamically designed consoles with a central captain’s chair mounted on rails will be exhibited.
The consoles contain the majority of controls and instruments required to operate the tug with at each end a semi-retractable screen for radar or other multi-function screen displaying navigation and other operational data.
