Electric Wormgear Winch MCW

Product catalog summary

Overview
The MCW-Series comprises electric self-braking worm gear winches designed for heavy-duty pulling and traversing tasks up to 2200 kg. These winches are suitable for inclined pulling due to their self-braking worm gears. They are often used in applications such as ranking railway wagons, moving motorless vehicles into workshops, or towing timber. The winches can operate continuously (100% ED) and are recommended to be used with three-phase motors for better performance with hanging loads.

Catalog excerpts

Electric wormgear winches MCW-Series MCW-Series A range of electric self braking worm gear winches, developed for heavy duty pulling and traversing duties up to 2200 kg. Due to the self braking worm gears the winches are suitable for pulling up an incline. A brake is available as an option for accurate positioning or repetitive lifting applications up to 2000 kg. MCW-series often used to rank railway waggons, bring motorless cars and trucks into repair workshops or tows fresh fallen timber. The winches can be used with 100% ED, which means continuesly. We always recommend to use the version with three phase motors to enable better starting with attached hanging loads. Available options • Braked motor (aluminium or cast iron) • IP 56TENV cast iron motor for marine applications • 230 V single phase motors (up to MC 750) • 24 V DC motors • Explosion proof motors • Protective steel motor cover • Manual or remotely controlled disengaging clutch • Band brakes • Grooved drum • Drum guards • Emergency cranking • Marine /offshore coating systems • Drum pressure roller • Alternative drum dimensions / split drums / additional rope anchors / etc. • Emergency cranking Complete execution The package contains the winch with brake motor, a control box and a emergency stop button, 3 m power cable with connector, however without rope.
