Construction winch is widely used for vertical lifting or horizontal pulling of heavy loads or materials in construction, water conservancy projects, forestry, mines, wharfs, etc., and can also be used as supporting equipment for modern electronic control automatic operation lines.For example, Aicrane AQ-JM series electric construction winches are suitable for civil construction and installation projects, and AQ-JMM winches are commonly used for the installation and disassembly of various large and medium-sized concrete, steel structures and mechanical equipment.According to your specific application, our professional engineers will recommend suitable winch equipment to you.
The cost of a construction winch depends on many factors: load capacity, drum capacity, speed, additional features and functions, etc.
For example, a standard 10 ton winch may only cost a few thousand dollars, but if you require additional features and functions, such as rope spooling device, rope length and pulling force display, etc., the price may exceed 10,000 dollars.
Therefore, if you want to know the price of a construction winch, please contact our sales staff by email or phone and let them know your winch requirements. They will offer you a specific quote.
The motor drives the wire rope drum through the reducer, retracts and releases the wire rope, and changes the direction through different pulleys.
The process requirements are mainly the drum speed or the speed of the wire rope movement, and the safety and reliability of the braking system.
Construction winch is a simple and efficient winch device that helps you lift and pull heavy loads safely and quickly.
Using a winch can save your labor cost, increase work efficiency and safely, so it is worth getting a winch.
The wire rope should always pull from the bottom of the drum, which can reduce the height of the wire rope and save space. In addition, since the wire rope is close to the ground, it can reduce the chance of accidents.
- Bolt anchoring method
- Horizontal anchoring
- Pile anchoring
- Weight anchoring
- The location of the winch installation must have unobstructed drainage and a work shed should be set up.
- The installation position of the winch should enable the operator to see clearly the commander and the objects being lifted or dragged.
- A guide block should be installed directly in front of the winch. The distance between the guide block and the axis of the drum should be no less than 15 times the width of the grooved drums, and 20 times the width of the non-slotted drums to avoid excessive wear of the wire rope and the groove edge of the guide pulley.
- The direction in which the wire rope is wound into the drum should be perpendicular to the axis of the drum, and the allowable deviation of the verticality is 6°. In this way, the steel wire ropes can be arranged neatly, and will not be slanted winding and overlapping each other.
According to the difference of use and maintenance time, the maintenance of the winch can be divided into every shift maintenance, primary maintenance and secondary maintenance.
- Clean the winch body and add the specified lubricating oil according to the requirements of the lubrication table.
- Check the connecting bolts of all parts, and they should be intact and fastened firmly.
- Check whether the wire rope is broken or deformed. The wire ropes should be neatly arranged and well lubricated.
- Check the circuit and control equipment. All connectors should be connected reliably, and the fuse should comply with the regulations. Remove dust and dirt from switches, magnetic starters or cam controllers. The electrical equipment should be protected from rain and moisture and well grounded.
- Check the brake and clutch. The position of the operating handle should be accurate, the tie rod pin should be firm, the split pins should not be damaged, and the brake band should be kept clean and oil-free.
- Check the winch operation, and there should be no abnormal phenomena such as shock, vibration and excessive noise.
- Carry out all maintenance tasks for each shift
- Remove the dust on the slip ring of the motor and the carbon brush holder. The carbon brush holder should rotate flexibly, with uniform tension and good contact.
- Check and adjust the brake and clutche, and remove oil stains. Adjust the gap between the brake shoe and the brake wheel. Adjust the clutch to ensure flexible and effective disengagement and engagement.
- Check the open gear, there must be no damage or breakage.
- Clean the oil tank of the reducer. Release dirty oil in the reducer and add an appropriate amount of diesel oil, run for 3-5 minutes to release it, and then add new lubricating oil to the specified liquid level after it is cleaned.
- Carry out all the work of primary maintenance.
- Remove the dust and dirt of the cam controller and the contacts, and grind them smoothly to maintain the correct contact surface of the contacts. Check whether the circuit is in good condition, add lubricating oil to the rotating part, and keep the operation flexible.
- Remove the ash and dirt on the stator windings, check whether there are friction between the stator and the rotor, clean the bearings, and add new lubricating oil.
- Check the degree of wear of the brake and clutch. The contact area between the brake belt and the wheel should not be less than 80%, otherwise it should be adjusted or replaced.
- Dismantling and inspecting open gears, the tooth thickness wear should not be greater than 20%-25%, the clearance between the shaft and the copper sleeve should not be greater than 0.4 mm, and the radial clearance of the rolling bearing should be 0.16-0.20 mm.
- Check whether the gearbox is leaking. Clean the gears, bearings and oil passages of the reduction gearbox. After adding new lubricating oil, there should be no oil leakage at the oil seal.
- Check whether the wire rope joints are firm. When the steel wire rope wears and reaches the scrap standard, it should be replaced.
- Carry out full load and overload tests. All parts should meet the requirements and work reliably.

Timely and adequate lubrication is a prerequisite for ensuring the safe operation of the winch and prolonging its service life. The following are precautions for winch lubrication:
- The quality of the lubricant must meet the requirements and must not be mixed with impurities such as dust, dirt and water.
- The sliding bearing at the bearing bracket end is lubricated with 30# oil.
- The remaining transmission parts are lubricated with gear oil or No. 24 cylinder oil into the drum body.
- When refueling, the dust and dirt in the oil hole must be carefully removed to prevent it from entering the inside of the component. After the oil is filled, the oil plug should be tightened.
- For new or overhauled winches, after 8-10 days of operation, the lubricating oil must be replaced in order to remove the fine metal particles worn off during the transmission of the parts.
- Under normal conditions, replace the oil every three months.
- The temperature of lubricating oil during operation shall not exceed 80℃
