Anchor Handling and Towing Winches

Anchor handling/towing winches

FOR ALL TYPES OF AHT & AHTS VESSELS, PALFINGER OFFERS A WIDE RANGE OF ANCHOR HANDLING AND TOWING WINCHES.

PALFINGER MARINE supplies a broad range of winches for anchor handling and towing purposes onboard AHT & AHTS vessels. Winch dimensions and capacities are normally custom-built for the specific vessel and its operation. These winches and their associated control systems are suitable for all sizes of anchor handlers. In view of the very high loads, anchor handling and towing winches have to be tightly integrated into the structure of the vessel, which is why the winches are custom-built for the specific vessel and its operations.

AHT winches are delivered with hydraulic or electrical drive and with spooling device according to the customer's requirements. These winches are also equipped with advanced bridge control systems including all required functions and automation in addition to the local control on the winches, which is mainly for maintenance and service. Their rugged design ensures trouble-free operation under demanding conditions.
