Construction & Infrastructure

Construction and infrastructure projects require controlled pulling, positioning and temporary or permanent lifting solutions.

SWIN Industries manufactures electric winches, manual hand winches and customised lifting systems for construction, erection, infrastructure and project-site applications.

Equipment can be configured for controlled pulling, positioning, cable handling, maintenance lifting and permanent installations where the capacity, rope length, speed and mounting arrangement are clearly defined.

Recommended Solutions

Suitable SWIN Products

Electric Pulling Winches

Electric winches can provide controlled pulling with project-specific line pull, rope length, speed, brake and controls.

Manual Hand Winches

Manual winches are suitable for adjustment, occasional lifting and locations without electrical power.

Portable Davit Arms

Portable davit arms can be moved between prepared lifting points for maintenance and equipment handling.

High Mast Winches

Manual or electric high mast winches can be configured for luminaire-carriage raising and lowering systems.

Flexible Project Configurations

Construction applications vary considerably. The final design must consider the supporting structure, load path, site access, environmental exposure and the method used to anchor or mount the equipment.

Temporary or permanent installation
Manual or electric operation
Long rope capacity
Low-speed controlled pulling
Outdoor surface protection
Site-specific mounting frames

Information Required for Selection

A simple application sketch showing the load, rope path and mounting point is often the fastest way to define the correct winch arrangement.

Application and Safety Note

Temporary installations must be engineered and secured for the actual loads. Winches must not be used for personnel lifting unless specifically designed and approved for that purpose.
