About winches EMCÉ winches are custom built made products Many constructions are possible, and there are as many norms and selection criteria for choosing a winch. In this foreword we discuss several of these to help you in your selection. W.L.L. (Working Load Limit) The W.L.L. is usually given in the first layer, however it decreases for each higher cable layer. The line pull is expressed in kg or daN. Thus it is most important to determine the working length of the cable on the drum, to which should be added 3 safety windings which always remains on the drum. For lifting purposes a five-fold...

EMCE catalog-6

About winches In general we use two types. Claw types: these can't be operated under load, so that the driveline must first be freed of the load, (for example using a band brake on the winch drum) before the clutch may be operated. Claw clutches are always manu- ally operated, they are extremely robust, dependa- ble and relatively inexpensive. Friction clutches: these can be operated under load and can compen- sate for differences in turning speeds between the drum and the driveline. Friction clutches can be operated manually as well as remotely by hydraulic or pneumatic power sources. They are...
