When cable laying either in ducts or industrial buildings, KATIMEX® capstan winches offer a compact and powerful unit which is economical and hard wearing. Usage is simple, safe and practical even when used under limited working space such as an industrial plant. KATIMEX® electric capstan winches are specifically designed to be fixed and used in different working positions to give different pulling directions. By several slings of the rope around the capstan head and a light pre-stress at the open end of the rope, the full pulling force can be used. All winches feature two capstans of large and smaller diameters. Pulling speed and force can be altered by choice of capstan used. This enables a quick adaption to changing circumstances whilst cable laying. Using the well designed KATIMEX® capstan winches reduces time and man-power, as well as onerous, physical work, that may result in a high risk of injury.
