MAN-RIDING WINCH

MR SERIES

A man riding winch is mainly built to client specifications and can be executed with a self-braking worm, helical or planetary gear depending on the load required. The drive can be either electric, hydraulic or pneumatic. EMCÉ has supplied man riding systems up to a working load limit of 10,000 kg.

EMCÉ have supplied winches for the following applications:

  • safety harness or a boatswains chairs
  • diving frame applications
  • baskets or platforms
  • cable way rescue winches

As safety is most important with man riding winch applications a third party design review is often required. The type of design review is however very much depending on the local rules and regulations. For onshore personnel lifting applications within the European Union often a EC type examination is required. Offshore personnel lifting winches often require the same class as the ship or rig they are being used on. Most common classifications for offshore personnel lifting winches are LRS, ABS, DNV and GL.

All the above classification agencies have different rules and regulations. Therefore it’s very important that we are informed about the required classification in order to offer the correct winch to you. Furthermore details about the application are required to determine the required technical specifications.
