Interceptors

The Swedish company Zipwake started to develop its idea of a dynamic trim control system in 2011 with a team of engineers with knowledge in the maritime and automotive industries. In 2014, the first dynamic control system of the Zipwake series, the S. Zipwake, was presented in the Netherlands at the METS fair. For Slovenia, our company is the official representative.

 

The Zipwake interceptor, a dynamic trim control system, is equipped with ˇState Of The Artˇ technology and operates fully automated. The mode of operation of the system allows the vessel’s navigational characteristics to be improved, fuel consumption to be reduced, and greater comfort and safety (even under worse weather conditions and higher speeds). The system automatically regulates the position of the vessel in relation to the direction of navigation. It eliminates dangerous and unpleasant inclinations of the vessel in any direction during navigation. Installation of interceptors is not difficult – they can be installed under or above the waterline only using glue or screws.
The system consists of a control unit (possible installation of three control units), a distribution unit and interceptors (possible installation of up to 6 interceptors). The control unit has a high-resolution colour display and two operation buttons. The system operates fully automated by pressing the AUTO button. It is possible to install interceptors of different sizes depending on the size of the vessel itself. The interceptors operate fully automated and allow the vessel to transition easily from the water while speeding.

S SERIES

The S series includes four straight, four V and four chine interceptors and one midline interceptor.

E SERIES

E Series is a family of large, fast-acting interceptors that includes three straight, three U’s and two chine interceptors.
