Electric Hydraulic Vertical Capstan Anchor Windlass for Mooring | Marine Vertical Capstan

Product Overview

An electric hydraulic vertical capstan anchor windlass is a type of marine deck equipment designed for mooring operations, anchor handling, and rope or chain hoisting.
It is driven by an electric hydraulic power unit, providing stable torque output and reliable performance under marine conditions.
The vertical design makes it ideal for limited deck space and easy integration into ship structures.

Main Technical Parameters

Capstan Selection Guide

✔ Step 1 – Select Chain Size (Core Parameter)

· 12.5–26 mm → small vessels / light-duty

· 28–42 mm → medium vessels

· 44–70 mm → heavy-duty offshore

→ Chain size determines working load, motor power, and system configuration

✔ Step 2 – Confirm Working Load

· 5–20 kN → light-duty

· 20–80 kN → medium-duty

· 80–250 kN → heavy-duty

✔ Step 3 – Rope Type & Diameter

· Steel wire rope / Synthetic rope

→ Determines drum size

✔ Step 4 – Speed

· 9–12 standard / 12–18 high efficiency

✔ Step 5 – Drive Type

· Electric / Electric Hydraulic

✔ Step 6 – Control

· Local / Remote

✔ Step 7 – Base Type

· Below / Semi / Above deck

Engineering Note: Selection based on chain size, rope, load and vessel structure.
