The computerized Prop Scan was specifically designed to inspect the accuracy and precise hydrodynamic form of Australian, Canadian and US Navy propellers.

The accuracy and form or shape of a propeller blade section as it slices through the water determines the ultimate thrust and performance of any vessel.

Using Prop Scan technology a Prop Scan Technician will measure your propeller free of charge, check the accuracy against the ISO 484 International Standards and determine the section form of your propeller.

To optimize your propeller your Prop Scan Technician can then correct any accuracy problems, apply the correct section form and also tune the pitch of your propellers.

An accurate ‘Prop Scan’ propeller with the correct section form and pitch will always out-perform a standard propeller. You will get fuel savings, increased boat speed, reduced vibration, correct engine RPM and correct engine loading.


     ISO Propeller Standards      Who uses Prop Scan  
 

The International Organization for Standardization has produced a standard
(ISO 484/2) that defines the tolerances for marine propellers.

All marine propellers can be placed in a class based on the ISO 484/2 standards.

ISO 484/2 Accuracy Classes
Class
Description
S
Very High Accuracy
I
High Accuracy
II
Medium Accuracy
III
Wide Tolerances

Due to Prop Scan's high levels of accuracy it is now possible to repair a propeller to an accuracy level twice the accuracy of  Class S. We call this Class 0

 Speed Increase of 5 knots
 

Both propellers were fine tuned with Prop Scan and the pitch was reduced by ½" to 19". The boat was returned to the water, where sea trials produced a maximum speed of 20.2 knots at 2750 RPM. This was an increase of 5 Knots.

Decreased fuel consumption
 

If I didn't achieve one thing in performance, the difference in sound & smoothness was worth it. I can't believe how much quieter the boats runs now. As for performance: I picked up almost 1 knot in my cruise speed at the same rpm's as I ran before. The best part is I decreased my fuel consumption by over 15%

When propeller blades pass through water at an increasing speed, the pressure that holds the water to the sides of the blades is reduced which causes the formation of water vapor. The bubbles that are produced immediately collapse, releasing energy that can create cavitation burns on propellers blades. Pitch Calculations. Pitch is the theoretical travel a prop makes in one revolution. Your boat prop is the only source for getting available horsepower to the water. Pitch is a lot like gears in a car or truck. Higher pitch equals higher top end but terrible low end. Cupped Ski Boat, nibral, Aluminum, stainless steel propellers. Cup added to a prop blade controls what the propeller does for the boat.
