How a Modular Product Design Enabled the Wärtsilä 25 Engine to be Brought to the Market Faster Than Ever Before
The cost pressure in the shipping industry is crushing. Future fuel solutions will be expensive, and new engine product family development must have low fuel consumption, more straightforward maintenance, and a lower environmental footprint.
The Wärtsilä product development team was tasked with designing a new engine platform to meet maritime power and propulsion needs in a CO2 net-zero future. Leveraging their experience and learnings from earlier projects, their team began developing the new product family based on a modular platform.
This case study details how Wärtsilä experienced the following dramatic results:
Increased the service window by 8,000 hours
“Full configurability” to support multiple applications
Provides a full offering of diesel, gas, bio-fuels, ammonia, and other fuel options.
