Rolls-Royce and ZF developing a new digital monitoring tool

Rolls-Royce is testing a new electronic monitoring system that it developed with ZF on a catamaran, Halunder Jet operated by Förde Reederei Seetouristik in northern Germany. The tool, the Equipment Health Management System (EHMS), collects and analyses data from the ships engines, transmission systems and other key components on a vessel. It is intended to achieve maximum availability for ships, while keeping fuel consumption and CO2 emissions to a minimum.
