AlphaPilot MFM

Our new adaptive autopilot which features a 5-inch touch display with the hardware and software based on our uniform product philosophy, creating a consistent bridge and operational approach. The advanced track steering technology contributes to safe and efficient operation, defined by its simplicity in usage. The idea behind our new AlphaPilot was to design a modular system with standard components that also makes it easy to service. Due to our experience and feedback of our customers and engineers, our main goal was to design an autopilot that is easy to install, commission and to maintain. The new AlphaPilot had to be deployable as a small system as heading control system up to an advanced and complex autopilot system with multiple positions and to control main steering. The AlphaPilot is a modular, type approved heading control system designed to fit vessels of any size, including high speed crafts. This modern and technologically advanced control unit is intended to reduce the operator’s workload, increase the vessel motion efficiency and improve operational safety. The AlphaPilot is easy to install and has a fully self-adjusting ‘auto-tune’ algorithm which automatically estimates ships’ dynamics and allows it to easily adapt control settings, rudder gain and counter rudder as required to continually provide the best possible steering performance. The tillers are required for steering and switches for selecting steering modes. As an additional safety feature, the tiller in command will lit. All tillers and switches have dimmer and mute buttons. The modules have an aluminum base fitted with a dedicated PCB and a splash-proof film coating on the front. The modules are connected via CAN bus for communicating with the main control unit.

AlphaRiverPilot MF

The AlphaPilot MF is an autopilot, specially developed for navigation on inland waterways. In standard configuration, the Alphapilot MF is ideal for navigating a set track or acting as an autopilot. The autopilot function receives input signals from a turn sensor; almost any type is suitable for this. As an option, an electronic compass can also be connected for use as reference, creating a navigating combination of turn sensor and compass. By using various programs, the pilot can be configured for barge or pusher tug applications, for example. The pilot is suitable for controlling black/white and almost any proportional valves. There is also a special servo output to drive, for example, rudder propeller systems.

AlphaRiverTrackPilot

The AlphaRiverTrackPilot is a fully automated course and track control system for the inland shipping segment that allows a ship to sail along a predefined line. The AlphaRiverTrackPilot will take off the burden of the captain by not having to make many manual adjustments. Compared to a normal river pilot, the AlphaRiverTrackPilot will calculate the required rudder output for the steering of the vessel as well as to compensate for drift. Assisted by our proprietary compact joystick control panel, the captain can derive from the preset line and make small adjustment while navigating to the course of the vessel course. The choice of desired steering system automatic, follow up and track can be easily selected from the existing Alphatron Marine river pilot.

AlphaSeaPilot

Designed and developed for professional use on Magnetic and/or Gyro based vessels of all types – including High Speed Craft (HSC). The adaptive ALPHASEAPILOT installation, make ALPHATRON, is a technologically advanced and powerfully equipped Autopilot which is clearly displayed and simple to operate. The Alphaseapilot is MED type Approved for HSC & Conventional ISO 16329 & 11674/IMO A342 (IX) Deep Hull Vessels – Notified Body 0191 /07 as amended by MSC 64/67 Annex 3 Equally at home in new build and retrofit applications over an exceptionally wide range (fishing vessels, tugs, dredgers, ferries, coasters, survey and patrol vessels etc.) the ALPHASEAPILOT offers traditional Alphatron Marine reliability reinforced by Adaptive control technology. The adaptive function automatically monitors and self-tunes the Autopilot parameters to provide optimum steering performance whether operating on a fishing vessel in a low speed work mode or on a high speed passenger ferry underway at 40 knots.

Reflecta 2

REFLECTA/2/Fiberline is a reflector compass binnacle for worldwide use. It meets all important national and international specifications. Included in the range of delivery are all necessary components as magnetic reflector compass, azimuth device, reflection tube, correctors (only Flinder´s bar as extra) illumination, emergency illumination and installation material. If a vertical reflection tube a horizontal by-pass higher than 2m of length, the REFLECTA 2 must be chosen.

CMZ900

The system configuration can easily be adapted to each vessel's specifications. IEC 61162-2 high-speed code is available for the heading and rate of turn (ROT) outputs. A unique anti-vibration system enhanced by the velocity damping effect of high viscous oil, provides superior damping of vibration and decoupling of shock at sea. A small and lightweight container enhances the follow up speed. The gyrocompass changes smoothly and does not lag when a small vessel rapidly changes course. A space-saving design: the master compass and the control box can be installed on the autopilot stand. Automatic speed error correction is possible if both the ship's speed signal from the speed log and the latitude signal from a GPS or some other positioning device is available. Further, the latitude can be estimated from the ship's speed and the gyrocompass reading if the positioning device signal is absent. An external heading signal from an instrument such as a magnetic compass or a GPS compass can be passed to repeater compasses and other ship equipment for back-up purposes. As a standard function, a built-in monitor detects deviations between the master compass and external sensor heading readings. The restart time can be preset from 1 to 99 hours. Bridge Alert Management System (BAMS) interface function based on IEC62288 Ed.2.
