Auto Tension Mooring Winches automatically adjust rope tension to maintain secure vessel mooring in varying conditions. Mooring Winches are used to fasten ships to docks by winding or releasing ropes or cables. Both types ensure safe and efficient berthing operations with minimal manual intervention.

Auto Tension Mooring Winch:

- Size: Typically 10-500 kN capacity

- Grade: Marine-grade steel (ASTM A36 or equivalent)

- Viscosity: Hydraulic oil ISO VG 32-68 (if hydraulic-driven)

- Buoyancy: N/A (deck-mounted)

- Material: Carbon steel or stainless steel (corrosion-resistant coatings)

- Drum capacity: 200-2000 meters of wire rope/mooring line

- Line speed: 5-30 m/min (adjustable)

- Power source: Electric, hydraulic, or diesel-driven

Mooring Winches (General):

- Size: 5-1000 kN capacity (varies by vessel size)

- Grade: High-tensile steel (Grade 43/80 or higher)

- Viscosity: Hydraulic systems use ISO VG 46-68

- Buoyancy: N/A (fixed installation)

- Material: Galvanized steel, stainless steel, or alloy steel

- Drum capacity: 100-1500 meters (depends on rope diameter)

- Brake holding capacity: 100-150% of rated load

- Compliance: ABS, DNV, or Lloyd’s Register standards
