Marine Navigation

AMI Marine (UK) Ltd’s primary product portfolio contains the electronic link and retransmission systems that interface between new and existing bridge equipment, for example, a new gyro compass NMEA output with existing bridge displays. Including, but not exclusively, heading, speed log, Echo Sounder, Doppler, GPS, Radar, VHF, AIS, engine telegraph, thruster controls, rudder etc.

Due to the expertise gained through management and conversion of data signal formats, and analogue signals, such as synchro and stepper, it was a logical decision for AMI to expand the existing manufacturing operation for new products.  The first equipment produced was the ‘SMIDS’ (Ship’s Movement Information Display System), a multifaceted docking system which is type approved and carries the Wheelmark.
