Winches

Practical Application of Winches

Winches are intended for tearing of wooden reinforcement or iron fittings, i.e. tasks requiring great pulling force at low rope speed.

VTA 1000 Mining Winch

The VTA 1000 electrically driven mining winch is intended for transportation and re-location of materials, machines and their parts in mines and horizontal and pitched routes.
