Controllable Pitch Propeller in action See the precision of Wärtsilä's CPP system as it adjusts blade pitch to optimise performance. By varying the pitch angle—typically through hydraulic actuation—vessels can achieve efficient power usage across different speeds.​ 📍 Wärtsilä service centre in Chesapeake, Virginia 🔊 Turn the sound on for a mechanical symphony #MarineEngineering #Propulsion #Wärtsilä | Wärtsilä Corporation
