WINCH ABC
20
winches stand for strength, durability and innovation in one. In our program you will find everything from small quad winches
to truck recovery winches. Our winches are constantly being tested and tested and further developed for offroad range.
Which winch you mount on your vehicle should be well considered.
If you use the winch to recover your vehicle, there´s a rule of thumb applies: loaded vehicle weight x2. Of course, the size and weight
of the winch must be considered. With sensible accessories, such as a pulley, the traction power of the winch can be doubled, or even
tripled. (more on the accessories page). We would be happy to advise you before purchasing the winch.
Safety:
Be sure to read the manual before using, winches are not toys and are life-threatening if used improperly.
Clutch:
A freewheeling clutch detaches the gearbox from the rope drum so that the rope can be pulled out quickly by hand.
Traction force:
The traction is always given horizontally. The maximum traction is reached on the first (lowest) rope position, because when the rope
rolls up to the next rope position, the diameter of the drum is virtually increased.
Comparable to the gearbox of a car:
Car
:
first gear a lot of power & low speed/second gear less power & higher speed.
Winch:
first rope position maximum force & lowest speed/second rope position less force & higher speed
Battery:
Choosing the right battery is very important. If the battery’s capacity is too low, the winch and your alternator can be damaged.
Consider this when buying an electric winch.
Electric engine:
We have two types of electric motors:
1.
permanent magnet engines:
these engines generate the required magnetic field for the electric motor using a permanent magnet.
advantage:
disadvantage:
- cheaper price
- magnetism decreases with time,
- lower weight
so does the pulling force of the winch decreases
- Less heat development
2.
series wound engines:
In the series wound engine, the magnetic field is generated electrically.
advantage:
disadvantage:
- consistent performance
- higher heat development
- longer durability
- higher price
declaration „S“ series:
The „S“ in the article number stands for rack. „S“ models have installed the electric control box not on the side, but over the rope drum
as a rack.
