  • Barge Winches

    Two main different ranges of barges are equipped with winches. On the one hand, the transportation barges; on the other hand, the working and handling barges. Winches functions and features are consequently very different to suit both ranges of barges.

  • How to Choose the Right Rope for your Winch

    The choice of rope for a winch has a significant impact on the safety of the handling facility and it is essential to consider it as the starting point for any sizing of a winch.
