Stabilis Electra is the revolutionary system being offered by CMC Marine to overcome the problem of diminished dynamics of a mechanical actuator. Stabilis Electra uses a new generation of actuator to move a fin stabiliser connected to a DC motor with a permanent magnet.

This solution greatly simplifies the hardware for the electronic control system which in turn is much more flexible and powerful versus a control system for a hydro-mechanical system.

Moreover, this allows for the control of the fin system with input from various reference parameters such as: power, torque, speed, position and power absorption, to create new highly sophisticated and adaptable control algorithms.

Stabilis Electra therefore offers significant advantages, both in terms of performance and capital cost:
- Faster response at a higher frequency.
- No significant loss of power.
- Faster rotating speed which helps tremendously when at anchor.
- A reduction in the power absorption of 50% compared to a traditional hydro-mechanical actuator.
- Less volume.
- Less installed power.
- Lower installation costs due to simpler mechanics and a reduction in the number of components.
- Greater flexibility with regards to the design and installation.
