Double Gypsy Wheels Anchor Windlass

Double Gypsy Wheels Anchor Windlass

Application

A double gypsy wheels anchor windlass is a type of device used on boats and ships to hoist and lower anchor chains. It consists of two gypsy wheels, which are toothed wheels that grip and pull the anchor chain, and a motor or other power source to drive the wheels. The double gypsy wheels windlass is designed to handle two chains simultaneously, which can be useful in situations where two anchors are being used or where an extra chain is needed for added security. The double gypsy wheels windlass is typically mounted on the deck of the boat or ship, with the gypsy wheels located below the surface of the deck.

We not only provide customers with high-quality products, but also provide complete system solutions and added services for specific customers. Therefore, There are  high competitiveness.

Configuration options

Part Name	Type/Material	Advantages/Disadvantages
Gypsy Wheel	Q345D	It has good comprehensive mechanical properties, good weldability, cold and hot workability and corrosion resistance, and has good low temperature toughness (high strength, good welding performance).
Warping head	ZG270-500	Medium carbon cast steel has certain toughness and plasticity, high strength and hardness, good machinability, acceptable weldability, and poor casting performance than low carbon steel. Casting defects cannot be avoided.
	ZG270-500 Precision Casting	High cost and no defects
	Q345-B	Good comprehensive performance, good low temperature performance, good cold stamping performance, good welding performance and machinability. (High strength, good welding performance).
Electric Motor Type	HENGLI and LANHAI brand	Good quality, cost-effective, long service life. Self-contained brake, high safety.
	Other brands	High power consumption, relatively poor quality.
	ABB/WEG/Siemens	Good quality, high cost, long delivery time.
Pedestal	Q235-B	Suitable for products with small loads.
	Q345-B	High strength and good welding performance.

Due to the fierce market competition, the phenomenon of low quality of other winch suppliers is frequent. What is the difference between us and other low-quality suppliers?

The specific differences are as follows:

Part name	Other low quality suppliers	Result	Our factory	Consequence
Gypsy Wheel	Cast iron	Cast iron has good casting performance, but when the carbon content of cast iron is relatively high, its performance is relatively brittle, and its tensile performance is relatively poor; it is easy to corrode and wear quickly, which is not conducive to load.	Q345D	The Q345D steel plate is preheated before welding to prevent the occurrence of cold cracks. And Q345D has good cold and hot working properties and corrosion resistance, and has good low temperature toughness. Conducive to load, slow wear.
Warping head	ZG270-500	Casting defects cannot be avoided	Q345-B	High welding strength and slow wear.
Electric Motor Type	Other brands	High power consumption, relatively poor quality.	HENGLI or LANHAI brand	Cost-effective, good quality. Self-contained brake, high safety.
Pedestal	Q235-B	Low strength, suitable for products with small overload; Used for heavy loads winches, wear out quickly and break easily.	Q345-B	Higher strength, slower wear, not easy to break, suitable for both small and large load winches.

Maintenance advice:

★ The mechanical part of the machine should work under good lubrication conditions. The machine should be idling for a moment after each refueling to allow the grease to evenly coat the running surface.

★ Refueling parts are butter nozzle, transmission rod, gear, brake lever, etc.

★ The machine body and fixing bolts should be checked frequently for completeness and tightness. The brakes of the machine should be checked regularly to prevent grease from adhering to the braking surface. When the brake belt rivets rub against the brake hub, the brake belt should be replaced in time.

★ What is the condition of the limit bolts (adjustment bolts) of the windlass brake belt? Is it rusted? Special attention should be paid to the screw teeth under the brake lever, that is, after the brake is tightened, check the remaining screw teeth under the brake lever. According to previous experience, there are at least 10 teeth to be assured. The limit bolt is between the brake lever and the brake band, which can be used to adjust the height of the brake lever. The thread of the limit screw is fine. Open the brake lever and slowly adjust the limit bolt until the thread under the brake screw meets the requirements. This bolt should be properly buttered, wrapped in tarpaulin, and checked at least every three months.
