Our Capstan Winches provide an excellent mooring solution for ropes, hawsers and wire cables on board ship and we offer electric, hydraulic and pneumatic drive options.
About Capstans |
Originally constructed in timber with protruding bars which were used to manually turn the drum, the use of capstans have evolved considerably over the centuries and are common place on board heavy shipping and domestic vessels alike.
Today, Capstan Winches have their own drive system which is normally electric, hydraulic or pneumatic. This system drives the warping head which houses the torque-transmitting gear. The motor is normally situated below deck although we can house it in the warping head on request.
The capacity of a capstan is dictated by the nominal rope pull and related rope speed. Our range also includes capstan towing hooks which are essentially quick release hooks.
