What is Prop Scan®? PropScan® will allow our technicians to tune your propeller to the highest standards, adhering to ISO 484/2 tolerances. We will now be able to accurately measure pitch on your propellers to within .004". which means that your propeller will be repaired to a Class 1 or a Class S tolerance. Adhering to these tolerances means that your propellers, when repaired using PropScan® technology, will have less possibility of vibration, and increased efficiency. Along with the assurances of a more accurately repaired propeller, you will receive easy to understand reports detailing your propellers measurements before, and after the repair. In addition to this report, your propellers exact dimensions will be stored in our computerized database, in the event that your propellers need repair work in the future, they can be repaired to the original specs. How does Prop Scan® work? As the Prop Scan probe runs over the propeller blade, sensors collect data, sending it to the computer. The computer runs the Prop Scan Reporting System, which processes the information and displays propeller inaccuracies. Prop Scan is so precise it can measure propeller pitch to within ±0.004". Prop Scan can determine inaccuracies in pitch, camber and elevations that are undetectable to the naked eye. Prop Scan gives us the power to remove these inconsistencies, increasing the performance and comfort of your vessel. What do I get when my prop is repaired with Prop Scan®? All customers are given a before and after computer generated report that compares the propeller to the optimum enhanced design using the ISO 484 international standards. Additionally, the Prop Scan computer system keeps a record of all repairs. This allows the us to reproduce a propeller of the same specification every time. |
