Capstans
for marine
and industrial
purposes
This picture shows a brand
new replica of an historic
capstan.
To respect the characteristic
view of the ”Port de
Marseille”. No other than
the current capstans were
allowed on site. Again a
good example that we
build what the customer
asks for, rather than to sell
what is available.
Capstans have been part of ships equipment for centuries. The modern capstan is motor driven
and can achieve high line pulls and high speeds thanks to powerful motors integrated with
sturdy trans missions. Electric, hydraulic or pneumatic, the choice is yours. We do a wide range
of capstans ranging from flush fitted deck capstans for a clean deck line to the classic console
mounted capstan. Also very popular proved to be our horizontal capstans used in varying roles
from pulling rolling stock on shunting yards in Belgium to moving cable ferry’s in deepest Africa.
You want a standard electric capstan? we are happy to supply one. Or rather an exotic capstan
no one can supply? we can help 100 kg line pull we have them, 10 tonne yes, those too.
