Set up and function

The W-24 Cable winch has been developed as the successor to the tried and tested compact W-20 together with the W-40 drum size that reduces cable wear. The main features are the compact construction and the high tractive forces, specially designed for all types of assembly work. The cable winch is driven by a modern Briggs Stratton Vanguard EFI petrol engine, which complies with the current Stage 5 (Stage V) emissions standard. This engine is approved for use on all European and Swiss construction sites. The W-24 Cable winch is also fitted with the necessary safety brake (hydraulic spring-powered brake/dead man’s brake).

The cable winch drum is driven continuously forwards and backwards with a hydrostatic drive. The additional 2-speed transmission allows the cable winch to be driven either with higher traction or at a faster speed. Optionally the W-24 cable winch also has a mooring system (constant tension), which can be connected at any time with a lever. The Mars and Jupiter air brakes as well as the eddy-current brake can be mounted on demand. The cable winch can easily and quickly be dismantled into 2 parts for transportation with a small helicopter.

Special guides on the sled ensure the motor is automatically aligned when set down, so that the units can be quickly and easily screwed together. The complete cable winch can also be lifted up with just one specially provided suspension point.

The very similar construction to the W-30 and W-40 cable winches permit any option such as distance indicators, Unimat drive, continuous drive, air brake, etc. (see options and accessories) to be used from these cable winches.
