Offshore platform capstan

for work boatsfor shipsfor tugboats

The Capstan Series is a compact winch designed to perform pulling or hauling operations by horizontally winding a cable or rope around a drum. It converts rotational motion from a power source into high-output torque via a reduction gear to generate linear pulling force.

Operating principle

• The winch winds cable around a drum; the power source rotation is reduced through gearing to produce controlled output torque and linear pulling force.

Key features

• Compact footprint with a tight structural design for space-efficient installation
• Reliable operation with high power density
• Facilitates straightforward installation and maintenance

Technical specifications

• Speed: 9–18 m/min
• Rated load (series range): 5–200 kN
• Drive types: D = Electric, Y = Hydraulic
• Drum heads: precision-cast components; materials available: cast steel or 316L stainless steel
