WHAT IS A WINCH FOR? TYPES OF WINCHES.
An essential part and one of the optimal solutions for working with heavy objects is the winch. It is a device for lifting, moving or pulling loads using a flexible element (rope, chain) wound around a drum or passing through a sprocket.
Due to the specific nature of the loads and the different operating conditions, different types of winches have been designed: mechanical, electric, hydraulic and pneumatic.
We will focus on electric winches, which are among the most popular types of this machine, as they are used both on an industrial scale and in small workshops. These are exactly the models that we offer.
ELECTRIC WINCHES ARE THE MOST PREFERRED
The electric winch is used to lift loads of various shapes and is used in a variety of industries: construction, mechanical engineering, metalworking, car repair shops, warehouses, etc.
The winch requires 220 V power, which makes it convenient to use in almost any environment. Its purpose is to lift, lower, pull or generally move heavy objects from one place to another so that a person can do their job. The objects can be building materials, metal structures, large automotive parts, etc. This type of winch is used in small construction sites and for repairs in confined spaces.
One of the main advantages of electric winches is their low weight, which makes them easily portable. The installation of the equipment is simple. The machine moves on a console, being controlled remotely. The starting mechanism is connected to a cable, which allows for ease of use. The metal rope is wound and lowered from a drum and ends with a hook on which the loads for moving are hung. By means of a safety brake, the load can be held in a stationary position at the most convenient height for work. The components of the winch are made of high-quality materials. The weight may be low, but this does not impair the reliability of the lifting mechanism.
WHAT DO WE OFFER?
With us you will find RAIDER electric winches, which significantly increase the efficiency of work where lifting and moving loads is constantly required. These are universal hoists for lifting, tensioning and securing loads in any direction. This type of winch is most often used to pull a car, boat, crane, truck or other equipment. The models are distinguished by their compact design and strength.
According to their technical characteristics, winches can be classified into two subtypes:
- for amateur, home needs up to 250-500 kg load and rope thickness 3-4 mm;
- for professional use with a lifting weight between 500-1000 kg and a rope thickness of 6-8 mm.
We have both a model for domestic use and a model that is on the border between the two subspecies. One has a maximum load of 250 kg, and the other - 500 kg. These winches are easy to maintain, reliable and durable enough. They are used at temperatures from -20° to +40°C. They must be well protected from direct exposure to moisture.
