Ship Automations Systems for Naval Vessels

Advanced automation and control systems designed to enhance mission readiness, operational awareness, and vessel performance.

One supplier, complete system responsibility 

Naval and governmental vessels operate in demanding environments where reliability, availability and system integration are critical. mtu NautIQ automation systems provide comprehensive monitoring and control of propulsion, onboard power generation and auxiliary systems, supporting safe and efficient operation throughout a vessel's service life.

As part of Rolls-Royce's integrated naval portfolio, mtu NautIQ is engineered to work seamlessly with mtu propulsion and power systems. Operators benefit from a coordinated approach to system design, implementation and support, with a single point of responsibility across critical vessel systems. 

Integrated automation for mission-critical operations

A unified platform for monitoring and control helps crews manage complex vessel systems while supporting operational readiness and long-term availability.

Modern naval and governmental vessels depend on the seamless interaction of multiple onboard systems. mtu NautIQ integrates propulsion control, power management, vessel monitoring and condition-based maintenance capabilities within a common platform, providing operators with consistent access to critical operational information.

The system architecture supports efficient vessel management through centralized monitoring, advanced diagnostics and scalable automation functionality. By providing early insight into equipment condition and system performance, mtu NautIQ helps crews and maintenance teams make informed decisions, improve maintenance planning and maximize operational availability.

Designed for demanding maritime applications, mtu NautIQ supports redundant system architectures and can be tailored to vessel-specific mission requirements. Whether deployed on patrol vessels, coast guard cutters, frigates or support vessels, the platform provides the reliability, flexibility and lifecycle support required for long-term operation.
