Caudwell Marine and ZF Announce Technical Partnership
Stratford-Upon-Avon,– Caudwell Marine, a pioneering force in the marine industry, is thrilled to announce a technical partnership with ZF, a global technology company and supplier of systems for passenger cars, commercial vehicles, marine and industrial technology. The technical partnership sees ZF supporting Caudwell Marine in enhancing the performance and capabilities of their 300hp turbo-charged V6 diesel outboard.
With a legacy of innovation in the marine industry spanning over a century and Millions of hours per year being run on transmissions in the field, ZF brings unparalleled global engineering prowess to Caudwell Marine’s supply chain.
As part of the technical partnership, ZF has developed a highly sophisticated twin-clutch transmission system that seamlessly integrates with Caudwell Marine’s purpose-built turbo-charged V6 diesel powerhead and groundbreaking Axis-Drive steering system with Dual Propellers.
