Select the gear ratio by scene
Heavy commercial scenarios (e.g., fishing vessels, engineering vessels, anchor chain towing)
Recommended gear ratios: 153:1 to 189:1
Advantage: The multi-stage planetary gear structure provides ultra-high torque and can stably tow loads of several tons.
Typical Cases:
The 2000-lb electric winch (153:1 gear ratio) can still reach a linear speed of 8.2 FPM (2.5 MPM) at full load, balancing power and efficiency.
The 1500lbs electric anchor winch (189:1 gear ratio) is geared through four stages to ensure reliable retraction of the anchor chain in deep-sea environments.
Multi-functional leisure scenes (e.g., sailboats, small yachts)
Recommended gear ratio: 5:1 to 15:1 (two-speed or adjustable design)
Advantages: Low gears (e.g., 5:1) for fine handling, and high gears (e.g., 1:1) for fast take-up.
Typical Cases:
The 1500 lbs manual winch can manually tow a 700kg load in 5:1 gear through dual-speed shifting, and the take-up speed is increased by 3 times after switching to 1:1 gear.
The 4,000-lb manual winch features a 15:1 gear ratio to balance manual operation with medium load demands.
