Electric power mooring winch is a simple piece of marine machine incorporating a winch onto which the rope is wound. Through spur gear transmission system, the motor drive is connected to the winch drum and warping end. The transmission system can also be fitted with a clutch and a band brake. The warping end functions as a locking device as it can prevent the rope from sliding off the drum when it is pulled excessively.
Backed by professional technical team, the mooring winch supplied by our company can be designed into any capacity and size to match your business demands, such as 5 ton mooring winch, 10 ton mooring winch, 15 ton mooring winch, 20 ton mooring winch and 50 ton mooring winch. Besides, it can be custom designed and constructed to meet your special requirements.
Generally, the safety factor of the cable is 6~8. If no special requirements are specified, the safety factor will be 6. The rope is available in many different types, such as synthetic fiber and wire rope. When using the wire rope, the diameter of the drum is not less than 16 times the designed rope diameter.
Automatic control brake
The electric mooring winch will be equipped with automatic control brake. When the handle is at the brake or the winch is unpowered, this device should automatically brake.
Drum brake
Each winch should be equipped with drum brake for a safe winching operation.
Winch controls
The direction of movement should be clearly marked on the control device.
Clutch
For double drum mooring winch or winch with warping end, a clutch should be placed between the drive unit and the drum.
Warping end
The warping end is optional for your mooring winch. Its shape should meet the standard of GB7390.
Rope guide
According to the customer’s requirements, rope guide can be fitted on the electric marine winch.

How Do Electric Mooring Winches Work?
The working principle of an electric mooring winch is to convert electrical energy into mechanical energy through a motor, that is, the rotor of the motor rotates and drives the drum to rotate after the V-belt, shaft and gear decelerate.
It uses an electric motor as power, drives the drum through an elastic coupling, a three-stage closed gear reducer, and a gear coupling, and uses an electromagnetic system.
What Are The Maintenance Done On The Mooring Winch?
A proper maintenance of mooring winch is indeed important for the overall safe mooring operations. Here are some maintenance tips for your reference:
Check the critical components of winch machine prior mooring to make sure they are in good working conditions. For instance, check all controls, rope and drum.
Conduct regular greasing of rotating parts of mooring winch, such as rollers, drum and fairleads.
Conduct visual inspection periodically for damages.
Clear walkway to ensure the deck is completely free of obstructions and oil residues.
Maintain the wire rope regularly to improve its performance as well as extend its life.
Mark and label the winch properly to ensure a safe and effective operation. Specifically speaking, the rotating direction of the drum should be clearly marked; the fairleads and rollers should be marked with their safe working limits; braking capacity shall be marked.
What Is A Warping Drum Used For?
For normal mooring, the rope on the mooring winch drum is sufficient. However, sometimes the ship needs to use an additional mooring rope when docking or passing through the ship lock. At this time, a secondary drum, that is, a warping drum is required to retract the rope.
What Are The 3 Methods of Mooring?
Single-buoy or single-point mooring system:
Generally, larger vessels that cannot approach ports and wharves are moored at port boundaries or shelters, and cargo transshipment is carried out through single-point or single-buoy mooring.
The basic principle of the buoy is to keep the position of the ship stable relative to the buoy, while allowing the ship to swing in the wind.
Conventional buoy or multi-buoy mooring:
In this method, the bow of the ship is fixed with two anchors, while the stern is fixed on the buoy.
Mediterranean mooring:
For this type of mooring, engine motion is used to determine and approximate a pre-calculated position. The bow was initially tilted towards the berth, and the starboard anchor was released at this position.
After that, the engine runs backwards and releases the port anchor at the designated location. The boat leaned back and swung to starboard. Therefore, the ship is secured by two anchors when approaching the dock. Then pass the stern line, keeping the mooring tight by using anchor cables.
