Mooring Winch

A mooring winch is a piece of marine device to hold a boat in place. The winch contains a drum divided into working part and storage part. Sailors can wrap rope, chain, or cable around the drum. There are single drum and double drum mooring winches with or without auto-tension device. Non-asbestos band brake and warping head are fixed on the main shaft. It is also designed with fully or partially enclosed gears. This mooring winch has functions such as shifting, holding and positioning for loading and unloading. They can operate in various ways and are fixed in place on the deck of a ship in key positions. Sailors should carefully position and secure the ship when it comes into port. Some mooring winches are electric and may be driven by the ship's power plant. They can also be hydraulic or controlled with gas generators. On deck, sailors can control a mooring winch directly. Some mooring winches also have remote control features to allow sailors to operate the equipment at a distance. Before remote control operation can proceed, the captain needs to clear the deck of unnecessary personnel for safety reasons. The lines can be quite dangerous for unwary sailors and passengers, who may not be aware of the risk if the mooring winch equipment is being operated remotely.
