Electric Combined Anchor Windlass

Electric Combined Anchor Windlass



Application

An electric combined anchor windlass is a piece of equipment used on boats and ships to raise and lower the anchor. It typically consists of an electric motor, a gearbox, a drum, and a gypsy, which is a rotating drum that grips the anchor chain. The windlass is mounted on the deck near the bow of the vessel. When the anchor is raised, the electric motor turns the gearbox, which in turn rotates the chain wheel and gypsy, pulling the anchor chain up and onto the deck. When the anchor is lowered, the process is reversed, with the chain being paid out through the gypsy and down into the water. According to the arrangement, there are single gypsy wheel windlass, double gypsy wheels windlass and combined windlass. It can be equipped with warping head.

Consequence

Drum

To reduce costs, reduce the thickness of the drum.

The thickness of the drum is too thin, which is not conducive to the load and wears quickly.

Produced in strict accordance with product production standards, with moderate thickness.

The thickness is moderate, which is good for loading, wears slowly, and does not cause the product to be too heavy to increase the transportation cost.

Gypsy Wheel

Cast iron

Cast iron has good casting performance, but when the carbon content of cast iron is relatively high, its performance is relatively brittle, and its tensile performance is relatively poor; it is easy to corrode and wear quickly, which is not conducive to load.

Q345D

The Q345D steel plate is preheated before welding to prevent the occurrence of cold cracks. And Q345D has good cold and hot working properties and corrosion resistance, and has good low temperature toughness. Conducive to load, slow wear.

Reduction Gearbox

Domestic second-tier brands

Poor quality and short service life.

Homemade or domestic first-line brands

Good quality and cost-effective.

Cluth

ZG270-500

Casting defects cannot be avoided.

Q345-B

Good quality and cost-effective.

Electric Motor Type

Other brands

HENGLI or LANHAI brand

Cost-effective, good quality. Self-contained brake, high safety.

Pedestal

Q235-B

Low strength, suitable for products with small overload; Used for heavy loads winches, wear out quickly and break easily.

Q345-B

Higher strength, slower wear, not easy to break, suitable for both small and large load winches.

Electric Combined Anchor Windlass Functions

The primary function of an electric combined anchor windlass is to make it easier to raise and lower the anchor on a boat or ship. Here are some of the key functions of an electric combined anchor windlass:

1)Anchor handling: The windlass allows the operator to raise and lower the anchor more quickly and easily than doing it manually. This is particularly important in situations where the boat needs to anchor frequently or in challenging conditions such as high winds or strong currents.

2)Chain management: The windlass also helps to manage the anchor chain, ensuring that it is stored properly on the deck and that it is not twisted or tangled. Some windlasses have a chain stopper or brake that can be engaged to hold the chain in place when the anchor is set.

3)Safety: An electric combined anchor windlass can also enhance safety on board by reducing the risk of injury to crew members who might otherwise have to handle the anchor manually. The windlass also allows the operator to control the anchor from a safe location on the boat.

4)Remote control: Many windlasses come with a remote control, which allows the operator to control the windlass from a distance, such as from the helm or cockpit. This makes it easier to handle the anchor in challenging conditions or when anchoring in deep water.

5)Dual operation: Most electric combined anchor windlasses have both an electric and manual mode of operation, allowing the operator to switch to manual mode in the event of an electrical failure or emergency situation. The manual mode typically involves using a hand crank to operate the windlass.

Overall, the functions of an electric combined anchor windlass are designed to make anchoring easier, safer, and more efficient, which is critical for any boat or ship that needs to anchor regularly.
