Special engineering and design
The winch is made from stainless steel and features a modular and compact design, which allows for flexible system installation on board vessels with confined deck space. It comes with several intelligent features facilitating accurate and effective equipment handling as well as a fiber optic slip ring, fiber optic cable, and fiber optic termination. A soft-start function makes the winch easy to handle, improves equipment maneuverability, and protects the motor and gear.
This specialized winch also features traction control making the winch capable of handling the neutrally buoyant Kevlar reinforced fiber optic ROV communication cable.
