How Does An Electric Anchor Windlass Work?
The power source of the electric windlass is an electric motor, which drives the main shaft to rotate after the large and small gears in the reduction box achieve multi-stage deceleration. Due to the high reduction ratio requirements, the reduction mechanism is relatively large.
The electric windlass anchor winch is mainly used on small and medium-sized ships, and is generally suitable for anchor chains with a diameter of 16mm-93mm.

Compared with the electric windlass, under the same power, the hydraulic windlass has the advantages of compact size, light weight, stable operation, and can realize stepless speed regulation and automatically prevent overload.
How Does A Hydraulic Windlass Work?
The Electro-hydraulic Windlass is driven by the electric motor to drive the hydraulic pump, and the generated oil pressure drives the oil motor, and then the windlass is operated through the reducer (or without the reducer).
The hydraulic windlass is widely used on modern large and medium-sized ships, and is suitable for anchor chains with a diameters of 16mm-120mm.
The windlass is used to retract and release anchors and anchor chains. It is usually installed on the main deck of the fore and stern part of the ship for anchoring and mooring of the ship. The warping head on both sides of the gypsy can be used for line handling.
