Autopilot & Steering Control Systems


The innovative Navipilot 4000 Ship Steering Control System is the first marine autopilot which uses ship steering control network technology to control a ship. This Sperry Marine autopilot is capable of tuning itself to adapt automatically to the ship’s load characteristics. The Navipilot 4000 marine autopilot was designed with the aim of increasing profit by reducing running costs.
