Aicrane double drum hydraulic mooring winch was shipped to Indonesia. It will be used for the customer’s workboat in Indonesia. According to customer requirements, the hydraulic mooring winch adopts a double drum and split drum structure.
When mooring, since the rope of the non-split drum mooring winch released directly from the drum, the last turn of the outer layer tends to bite the lower layer under tension. This can cause damage to the rope and difficulty in releasing the rope. To avoid this problem, non-split drum winches should be kept a sufficient distance from the gland to ensure that the rope can be wound properly.
While a split drum winch can solve this problem perfectly because most of the rope is stored in the storage section and the tension part will hold the tension.
Split drum mooring winch is a winch with a drum that is divided into a tension section and a line storage section by a notched flange.
We have created a 3D video of the double drum hydraulic mooring winch to help users better understand the structure of the winch and how it works.
