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.
Electric winches can provide controlled pulling with project-specific line pull, rope length, speed, brake and controls.
Manual winches are suitable for adjustment, occasional lifting and locations without electrical power.
Portable davit arms can be moved between prepared lifting points for maintenance and equipment handling.
Manual or electric high mast winches can be configured for luminaire-carriage raising and lowering systems.
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.
A simple application sketch showing the load, rope path and mounting point is often the fastest way to define the correct winch arrangement.
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.
