An electric winch is a motorised device designed to wind or unwind a cable (steel or synthetic) in order to lift, pull or move loads. Unlike manual winches, which require human strength to operate, electric winches are powered by an electric motor, enabling them to handle heavier loads. More powerful, they save time and offer greater convenience to the user.
HUCHEZ’s range of electric cable winches includes several models to meet different needs, constraints or environments.
Electric winches are used by professionals in many sectors, such as construction and civil engineering (lifting materials and handling on site, erecting structures, etc.), mining and quarrying (tensioning conveyor belts, etc.), industry (moving machinery, loading/unloading heavy parts, maintenance, automation, etc.), agriculture (operating hangar doors, etc.), and the marine sector (launching or hauling out boats, etc.)…
Compliant with the Machinery Directive and meeting current standards, they also feature a number of safety options that are mandatory for lifting operations, such as limit switches, an emergency stop, and, for loads of 1,000 kg or more, a load limiter.
These motorised winches are ideal for replacing manual winches and help to prevent musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs).
Designed for simple lifting and pulling applications (handling doors or hatches, maintaining chandeliers, etc.), the MOTORBOX winch is available in a direct control version for use in sheltered conditions or in a very low voltage control version to protect users from electrical risks. Easy to install, it’s ready to use (just plug it in).
AGON electric winches, meanwhile, are specifically designed for raising basketball backboards in sports halls, as well as advertising hoardings and partition walls in multi-purpose halls.
Designed for simple lifting or pulling applications, these electric winches meet the same quality standards as the TRBoxter and TRBoxter INOX winches.
Popular for their compact design, these electric winches are available with a limited range of options. They have proven themselves in numerous applications such as hauling pleasure boats, handling stage sets or swimming pool roofs, lifting equipment on construction sites, and lifting chandeliers during maintenance operations…
The TRBoxter and TRBoxter INOX electric winches are multi-purpose electric winches with a high duty cycle.
TRBoxter winches are available in a very low voltage control version with 1 speed or with variable speed control. As flagship products at HUCHEZ, these electric winches offer a wide range of mounting options and cable outlets, as well as numerous accessories (construction site chassis, tubular protection, etc.).
Robust and compact, they are particularly suited to the construction industry, manufacturing, the stage and event sector, and more. They are designed for a wide range of lifting and pulling applications, such as boat hauling, lifting various loads, suspending chandeliers, and can also be integrated into a variety of equipment, including cranes.
Designed to meet the industry’s growing demands for performance and reliability, these electric winches stand out for their robustness, compactness and versatility. They are equally suited to indoor and outdoor use, for lifting and pulling applications ranging from 2 to 20 tonnes as standard.
Their wide range of lifting capacities and power ratings enables them to handle a multitude of industrial applications such as lifting dam gates, pulling heavy loads, raising conveyor belts, goods lifts, and more. Models with a long drum offer greater winding capacity (up to 128 m as standard), whilst models with an FEM/ISO 3m/M6 rating are specifically designed for intensive use in harsh environments.
These industrial electric winches can be fitted with a wide range of optional equipment (construction site chassis, tubular protection, choice of motor position (vertical or horizontal), grooved drum, rope press roller, rope slack switch, etc.).
