<\/span><\/div>Harbor Tugs and Sea or Ocean Tugs<\/h4>\n
Different requirements apply when towing in harbors and at sea, each calling for specific towing winches for optimal performance.<\/p>\n
In the harbor, towing requires a different type of winch than during ocean towing activities. Ocean towing involves larger distances between the tugboat and the load, necessitating a cable with minimal stretch<\/strong>. At sea, towing is often done with more tension on the line, allowing for greater forces and resulting in lower energy consumption.<\/p>\nFor towing in harbors, cables with significant stretch<\/strong> are used to compensate for minor fluctuations. Additionally, a control system with brake force limitation<\/strong>, also known as constant tensioning, is often chosen to maintain even tension on the cable and ensure smooth towing operations.<\/p>\nThe different requirements for towing in harbors and at sea underscore the need for customized solutions<\/strong> and advanced technologies in the world of towing winches, where Brusselle continues to play a leading role.<\/p>\nAnchor Handling Winches<\/h4>\n
Anchor handling winches, versatile for both handling anchors and salvage operations<\/strong>, are custom-made and delivered as turnkey solutions by Brusselle.<\/p>\nAt Brusselle, close collaboration with the shipowner and shipyard is central to the design and construction of our winches. Every detail is carefully considered to meet the specific requirements of the vessel, prioritizing efficiency and reliability. Whether it’s quickly veering anchors to save operational time or precise winch control without vibration and noise<\/strong>, our anchor handling winches come with advanced features that make a difference.<\/p>\n<\/div>
