MLD Trawl Steering System
MLD Trawl Doors: Advanced Aero-Inspired Technology for Superior Trawling Performance
MLD brings cutting-edge aerospace design to the subsea environment with our patented flap technology. The combination of our innovative flap design and hydraulic system creates a highly dynamic product that allows for remote steering capabilities.
Designed using principles from flight technology, MLD Trawl Doors feature unique hydrodynamic properties, setting them apart from traditional trawl doors. Starting with our base model, our doors deliver superior performance, offering enhanced efficiency and control.
MLD Trawl Steering System (TSS):
Our advanced TSS actively steers the doors to maintain the optimal distance from the seabed or desired depth, reducing drag and minimizing gear damage. This ensures precise control over the spread, allowing for better trawl opening and positioning for more efficient fishing operations.
Since our founding in 2017, MLD has equipped over 40 vessels operating in the North Atlantic, Bering Sea, and off the coasts of Washington and Oregon with our high-performance trawl doors.
