FAQs

What Is A Hydraulic Tow Winch And How Does It Work?

Hydraulic towing winch is a system that winds wire rope on a drum while maintaining stable tension. It is used to tow the boat, and the pulling force of the towing winch is generally large.

The hydraulic winch is driven by hydraulic pressure, and the prime mover drives the hydraulic pump to input oil into the component to make it work.

Through the hydraulic working principle, the hydraulic winch can reach a powerful winch pressure in a short time, so that the performance of the whole winch can be fully displayed in the shortest time.

What Are The Main Components of Hydraulic Towing Winch?

The tug towing winch is a heavy duty unit operated by using a hydraulic pump. It transmits power through a hydraulic motor or cylinder. This equipment is mainly composed of hydraulic pump station, drum, rope, brake system and control system.

Drum
The winch drum is made of high quality steel for increased life span and excellent resistance to harsh environments. It can be custom designed based on the average loading capacity. We offer single, double or three drum configurations to meet varied needs of customers.

What Are The Technical Requirements for Hydraulic Towing Winch?

  • The winch should be outfitted with overload limiter for safe towing operations.
  • All winches should be equipped with band brake, an extra drum brake with two main functions, normal braking and emergency braking. In the event of emergency release or power failure, it will not cause the brake to completely disengage.
  • The drum should be designed to store at least 50m wire rope.
  • The winch should be fitted with rope guide to spool the rope better on the drum.
  • This equipment can also be designed with warping head. If the warping head handles the wire rope manually, the pulling force should not exceed 100Kn.
  • It can be designed with gypsy wheel to handle anchor.
  • If it is used on newly built tugboats, the tug winch should be equipped with load measuring device.
  • The rope drum is able to be released urgently when it winds the rope in and out or it is braked.
  • The winch control panel can also be designed with emergency release device.
