Question
Hello,
I don't know if this question is in your specialty. Anyway,
could you tell me about voith schneider propellers, particularly the materials, dimensions, production processes, cost, applications, era of use, RPM's, designer, etc.
If you could help out I would really appreciate it.
Thanks,
James.

Answer
You got me on this one...  had never heard of them...  so I googled it and apparently they're using in marine apps...  Thanks for bringing them to my attention, neat design....  (looks similar to some vertical axis wind turbines I'm familiar with)...  My best suggestion here is to google that name to learn more about them...

Thanx again,
