Die Ram-Type (Kolben-Typ) Ruderanlage mit Rapson-Slide-Mechanismus ist die klassische Bauweise für große Seeschiffe. Hydraulische Kolben (Rams) bewegen über einen Tillerarm den Ruderschaft. Der Rapson-Slide-Mechanismus kompensiert den veränderlichen Hebelarm bei Ruderlage-Änderung. Standard auf VLCCs, Capesize-Bulkern und großen Containerschiffen seit den 1960er Jahren.
