Diesel Engine Single Gypsy Anchor Windlass
Application
A diesel engine single gypsy anchor windlass is a type of anchor windlass that is powered by a diesel engine and features a single gypsy (a rotating drum that is used to haul in and pay out the anchor chain). This type of windlass is commonly used on medium to large vessels where a high level of anchoring power is required. The diesel engine provides the power needed to operate the windlass, while the single gypsy is used to manage the anchor chain. A chain stopper is typically used to hold the chain in place once the anchor has been deployed, while a capstan or other type of winch may be used to handle the anchor rode (the combination of chain and rope that is used to secure the anchor).

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. |
|
Reduction Gearbox |
Domestic second-tier brands |
Poor quality and short service life. |
Homemade or domestic first-line brands |
Wear-resistant, more matching with the structure of the windlass, and better performance. Good quality and cost-effective. |

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.
