The new FNM42HPE BHS 120kW, developed in partnership between CMD spa and Turntide Technologies

CMD S.p.A.- at METSTRADE in Amsterdam - with the new FNM42HPE BHS 120kW, developed in partnership with Turntide Technologies: Power, Efficiency, and Cutting-Edge Technology
The FNM Hybrid division of CMD S.p.A. returns to the spotlight at METSTRADE Amsterdam – taking place from November 18 to 20 – with an innovation set to redefine the standards of sustainable marine propulsion: the new FNM42HPE hybrid engine with BHS 120kW, developed in collaboration with the UK-based Turntide Technologies.
A blend of power, efficiency, and cutting-edge technology, the new system is the result of an international partnership combining CMD’s engineering expertise with Turntide’s leadership in axial flux electric motor design.
At the heart of this advanced system lies the integration of the FNM42Hp marine engine with BHS and the innovative Turntide Axial Flux Electric Motor, one of the highest performing in its class. It delivers a power-to-weight ratio exceeding 5.1 kW/kg and 20.5 Nm/kg at 360 VdC, ensuring smooth, quiet, and highly efficient operation, even in compact installations. 
"We are delighted to partner with FNM – said Michael Hart, Business Development Manager at Turntide Technologies - on this project. The collaboration shows one of the many ways that axial flux motors can power anything that moves, and we are proud to see the new Turntide next-generation axial flux motor succeed on the FNM42HPE hybrid engine.”

Key features of the new FNM42HPE with BHS 120kW :
* Peak power up to 310 kW (421 HP) in electric mode
* Low noise and zero emissions in electric mode
* Reduced fuel consumption and emissions at equal cruising speeds in hybrid mode
* Triple propulsion mode: thermal, electric, and hybrid

FNM Hybrid selected the Turntide AF430S for its high performance in limited spaces, low torque ripple, and compatibility with voltages up to 850 VdC – key features for high-performance marine applications. 
“The partnership with Turntide Technologies team – said Giorgio Negri, Sales Manager– is a prime example of how shared know-how and vision can translate into a tangible achievement in innovation and sustainability, marking an important step forward in the future of hybrid marine propulsion.” 

The BHS (Blue Hybrid System) 

The BHS (Blue Hybrid System) is a fully integrated marine hybrid system entirely designed and developed by CMD enabling three propulsion modes – endothermic, electric, and hybrid – all managed by a single control system.
Its main components include the electric motor, control electronics, and battery pack, allowing for zero-emission navigation at low speeds and maximum efficiency in endothermic mode, with automatic battery recharging during operation.
The FNM Hybrid engines with BHS system meet the growing demand for quiet, low-impact, and low-wave motion, thanks to the electric motor’s ability to operate at lower RPMs than conventional endothermic engines. An ideal solution for protected marine areas, lagoons, and European inland waterways.
CMD also offers custom-engineered solutions for any engine type, optimizing both hardware and software according to application requirements.
The BHS system can be integrated with internal combustion engines from various manufacturers, including FPT, BUKH, BONI, and VM.

Very compact sized marine diesel hybrid powertrain (from 13kw up to 25kw in electric).
Thanks to our high technology, our FNM Blue Hybrid System powertrain permits to switch from diesel-electric to electric- diesel in easy and fast way.
It allows to change propulsion from electric to endotermic (Diesel) in a moment, providing maximum power in case of emergency maneuver or duringdocking maneuvers.

So, we are the only ones who allow you to navigate the hybrid equal to a hybrid car this is our characteristic
