Beyond Versatility – The MHE-Demag Winch

Development work on the MHE-Demag Winch (also known as open winch) started in 2006 with the aim of providing economical solutions for light-duty winches that are used in powerhouse cranes. Since then, with changing demands and an ever increasingly competitive market, the MHE-Demag Winch progressed to heavier duty applications in steel mills and steel production cranes.

In 2007, the MHE-Demag Winch received an extension ‘arm’ with the certification of MHE-Demag to build explosion-proof hoists and cranes. The MHE-Demag Winch also became certified for use in explosion-proof environments for both GAS and DUST applications.

The versatility of the MHE-Demag Winch Winch (open winch), together with creative development by the Regional Business Management – Cranes & Components (Development) Team, enables the winch to be highly adaptive to suit any application. From the ‘standard’ standalone winch for the crane crab to twin winches on trolleys for monorail beams, and in both explosion and non-explosion proof executions, there is a suitable MHE-Demag Winch to fit every application. The MHE-Demag Winch can be fully assembled in any MHE-Demag company, with the exception of explosion-proof designs currently being built in MHE-Demag Singapore.

The latest development sees the MHE-Demag Winch taking on Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) hoisting applications on slewing jibs. LNG cranes require special specifications – twin lifting drums allow customers to freely interchange wire-ropes to suit their lifting requirements, high safety factor for ropes, long hook paths with slow lifting speeds, 50% redundancy with manual over-ride and explosion-proof executions. A compact lightweight design allows for small hook approaches and extends the slewing crane’s working range, as the crane is typically mounted at the edge of an LNG tank’s circumference.

The LNG MHE-Demag Winch is highly modular in design. Longer hook paths, varied lifting speeds, working loads and wire-rope diameters – the winch ‘grows’ or ‘shrinks’ to suit any application or requirement, making it a highly capable all-rounder that goes way beyond versatility!

MHE-Demag is the manufacturer and supplier of open winch in Australia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Taiwan & Vietnam.
