Thordon Bearings Inc.

Published purpose

This international consortium project “Wireless Bearing Condition Monitoring” will focus on the development, testing of a new system to provide access to real-time wireless data transmission technology without the expense and operational downtime to run cable through the stern tube and the ship's hull. This novel wireless solution helps ship owners lower costs, optimise equipment performance and achieve zero emissions below the waterline. CSignum and Thordon's vision is to combine CSignum's wireless data transmission IP, with Thordon's BCM system, to create a unique wireless BCM solution. This will facilitate the digitization of modern marine industries, safeguard the environment, & enable the less expensive retrofitting of the new BCM
