SAIM: Mini Controller

The Mini Controller designed by the Swedish Zipwake and distributed in Italy by SAIM Marine, the Unit Business of SAIM Group for the marine industry, implements the interceptor-based dynamic trim control systems, designed for effectively reducing boat pitch and roll, minimizing wave resistance, and saving fuel, while significantly enhancing the boat’s performance. The product is the perfect complement to any Zipwake system equipped with the Integrator Module and MFDs, especially when MFDs are installed on deck. Small and easy to install on board, whether operating automatically or through manual adjustments, its intuitive and user-friendly interface provides ease of use and enables a seamless system control for optimum trim without having to reach for a touchscreen: a useful option if the helmsman’s fingers are wet, or the weather is rough. The system can work automatically or through manual adjustments with the user-friendly and intuitive control wheels. When connected to the Integrator Module, the Mini Controller’s built-in GPS enables the trim control system to operate automatically without requiring an external GPS source. Also, the Mini Controller’s Key Sense can be connected to the engine ignition for automatic system power-on. Rugged and waterproof, the Mini Controller is designed to withstand harsh marine conditions and can be installed within reach anywhere – from the cockpit of a day cruiser to the flybridge of a yacht.
