Hydraulic constant-tension mooring winches and abandonment & recovery (A&R) winches engineered, fabricated & delivered in-house. Production builds: 4×50 MT mooring (SFE Adventurer), 6×35 MT mooring package (K-Link Bravo / Interlink), and 1×90 MT A&R (GL 2030).
Heavy-duty hydraulic offshore winch systems for mooring, abandonment & recovery (A&R), towing and cable-handling applications. Designed for offshore vessel duty with constant-tension control, redundant braking, automatic spooling, in-line dynamometers for tension/length monitoring and class-certified construction. Each package ships with its own electro-hydraulic power unit, local control stand and remote drop-in panel.
