1. Core Function Differences
Winch: Specifically designed for horizontal traction, commonly found in off-road vehicles, boats, etc., it pulls stranded vehicles or adjusts sails/anchor chains by winding ropes. For instance, a vehicle-mounted electric winch can provide temporary traction power through a 12V/24V power supply.
Hoist: Primarily for vertical lifting, it also has the ability to perform horizontal and diagonal pulling. It is used in construction, mining, and other scenarios for heavy object lifting, with a stronger load capacity. It is highly independent and can operate without relying on other equipment.
2. Structural and Size Comparison
Winch: Relatively simple in structure, typically consisting of a motor, gear system, and rope, it is small in size and easy to move and install (such as in vehicles).
Hoist: More complex in system, it includes a motor, gearbox, braking system, wire rope assembly, etc., and is larger in size and fixed in use. Some hoists are called winches, but they should not be confused with winches.
3. Application Scenario Differentiation
Winch:
Off-road vehicle extrication (such as in deserts, swamps);
Adjustment of boat anchor chains or sails.
Hoist:
Construction site lifting;
Port loading and unloading or mining operations.
The driver's cab is one of the necessary equipment that large cranes need to be equipped with, we customize the driver's cab according to the site and actual needs of customers, in order to make it better play a flexible and convenient operation role. In the case of double girder bridge cranes with a height of more than 20 meters and a weight of more than 10 tons, we recommend that customers have a driver's cab, which is safer and easier to operate the crane.
We are the largest crane manufacturer in China, with annual sales of more than 10 billion yuan, and annual sales of 73,000 single-beam cranes, more than 11,000 double-beam and gantry cranes, and more than 100,000 single-double-beam electric hoist accessories.
We have an advanced, green, whole-industry chain intelligent manufacturing industrial park, with an investment of 2.6 billion yuan and more than 4,700 employees, which has been established for more than 20 years. I really hope to have the opportunity to cooperate with you. We welcome you to visit our company. There will be opportunities to cooperate on some large-scale international projects, which will be mutually beneficial for both of us.
