ROLLA Propellers

EXPERTISE

What makes Rolla unique is the combination of technology, software capabilities, experience (which means also an unequalled data base) and capability in determining strategy for a propulsion solution or optimization.

The fact that Rolla can apply all these factors as an integral service and part of the in-house manufactured product is an advantage that has been constructed over the years.

The most recent proof of this unique capability is the RAMTA Dvora Mk. III where all of the above capabilities were employed, and the craft on its first sea trail met all performance specifications (which were extremely restrictive and demanding) with less then a one per-cent tolerance. This is a remarkable result considering the hull was a new design with CFD analysis by Rolla, and the engines were a new series in their first military application.

Our Team

From the beginning Rolla has always had the philosophy of identifying key, competent people for important functions and have made them an integral part of its system so that the company could grow in its desire to be the technical leader in its field.

These people can be identified in Marzio Porro for the propeller design, Franco Gotta for application and power prediction, Mario Caponnetto for research with Stephane Sanchi doing the CFD analysis.

This philosophy based on the belief that proper delegation of key technical roles was the only way to turn the company that started with only an expertise in very fast propellers (a world renowned expertise, but limited to that sector) into a world leader technically in the complete field of propeller propulsion which today goes from super silent displacement craft to the world’s fastest boats to the successful design of CP aircraft carrier propellers of the most extreme sophistication and performance specifications.
