Friction winches
Friction winches are devices specifically designed for the installation of hoisting or winding ropes. These winches increase the rope tension during operation in order to ensure the required pretension forces for the correct installation of mining ropes.
Another advantage of friction winches is that they operate without any power supply. The increase in rope tension is achieved purely mechanically via band brakes. Their robust construction and simple technology make them a preferred choice for mining and industrial projects that rely on maximum reliability.
Olko ensures that these winches meet the specific requirements of customers and are always kept up to date with the latest technology.
