Maxpull Capstan type manual winch MC series
Made in Japan
Manufacturer: Maxpull
Model: MC-1 type / MC-3 type / MC-5 type / MC-10 type / MC-20 type
Features
A winch for horizontal pulling that can pull a workpiece back and forth. It is necessary to wind the wire rope 5 to 7 times around the drum, operate the handle, and apply tension to pull in the length of the wire rope that is the same as the length of the wound wire.
Easy operability
Due to its high mechanical efficiency, the manual load during operation is very light compared to winches manufactured by other companies, making work easier. The compact design makes it lightweight and very convenient to carry. In addition, the body can be easily fixed with the prescribed bolts. Another big feature is that each part is made by press processing, and the whole is assembled with bolts, so it can be easily disassembled. In the case of repair, anyone can easily perform repair and assembly by simply purchasing the parts and following the instruction manual.
Outstanding durability
All bearings use ball bearings from leading manufacturers. It is light to wind up and exhibits outstanding strength against wear. In addition, the speed reducer adopts our unique shifting method gear that has been subjected to special heat treatment, allowing work to be performed with ease. The mechanical brake also has a mechanism that allows you to freely adjust the gap, so it has excellent durability. In addition, the surface is completely prepped and baked on, so it is resistant to rust and can be used anywhere, and is unparalleled in robustness.
Safety you can trust
Carefully selected materials and advanced design and technology boast an extremely high level of safety. In particular, the parts where the load is applied intensively are combined with precision press-processed ribs or double plates to further increase strength. A double safety mechanism is adopted for the mechanical brake, so even if an impact is applied to the claw arm, no braking will occur. All are highly reliable and safe designs unique to our company.
Precautions for handling
Do not use the capstan winch to lift a load vertically. It is suitable for work that pulls carts horizontally. Tension is required on the hand picking side.
The MC winch has 5 or 7 turns of wire rope wound around the middle of the drum (capstan drum), and the length of the wire rope wound around the drum is pulled off while rotating the handle. It is necessary to continue At this time, it is necessary to apply tension to the side of the wire rope to be pulled so that the wire rope does not slip on the drum. Refer to the table below for the amount of tensile force required on the side of the wire rope to be pulled.
