Throttle Up Propellers, Manufactures the
Worlds Finest, Strongest and Fastest Propellers in the high performance
marine industry. Our CNC process is unlike any other process of its
kind. We begin with the Purest of Stainless Steel, referred to as
"Virgin". We then heat-treat the castings in house, to meet the demands
of our customers. The propellers are machined in simultaneous
multi-axis mills. In turn, manufacturing propellers that are exacting,
thus creating a propeller with unsurpassed efficiency, therefore speed.
From CAD to CAM to machinery, we utilize the most progressive software
programs and equipment available, in the market today.

Our team of Designers, Engineers and
Machinists have developed a line of propellers to compliment your boat.
The use of the latest computer technology
is an integral part of Throttle Up Propellers manufacturing procedures.
Using sophisticated computers and advanced CAD/CAM software a new
propeller concept is designed. The completed design can be assessed for
shape and profile then individual sections can be analyzed to determine
their effectiveness, or otherwise, in operation.
Once the design has been theoretically
proven, the computer generates machining toolpaths using surfaces from
the propeller drawing. Basically, the complete machining of the
propeller can then be simulated on the computer screen to verify such
things as tool selection, cutter direction, clearances, surface blending
etc.

When these machining toolpaths have been
verified they are then automatically down loaded to a CNC vertical
machining center (VMC). By transmitting precise co-ordinates with the
computer, in effect guides the VMC tool to machine the propeller pattern
exactly as it was originally drawn. Using this technology, new prototype
"test propellers" are produced and water tested within our ongoing R&D
program.
Once a new design has been proven, by exhaustive testing, our computer
can then parametrically produce toolpaths for any combination of
diameter and pitch. Resulting from this extensive R&D program some
exciting new propeller designs have been produced. This advanced
computer technology ensures that Throttle Up Propellers are not only of
superior design, but the finished products are
now
consistently superior, both in terms of overall quality and accuracy, to
propellers
made from traditional manual pattern making methods.
